Taxonomic Comments

Genus is erroneously spelled Chaenorrhinum (with two r's) in some sources, including Kartesz's 1994 Checklist. Apparently, Chaenorrhinum is not a published genus name, but rather, the spelling Chaenorhinum (D. C.) Reichenb. is published. Another published spelling of the genus name is Chaenarrhinum (L.) Lange.
