Annotations
W. W. Smith: R. F. 14158 is misquoted by Stapf, it is Ypsilandra. The correct number for the type of Cassiope pectinata is 14185. According to Stapf's naming of sheets in our herbarium, his species is liker your C. dendrotricha than your C. macrantha. To me there seem to be gradations between several of the proposed species of Cassiope, however.
