The list contains accepted names for genera, species, subspecies, and varieties, authors of plant names; family names; and symbols for scientific names, source manuals, plant habits and regions of distribution.

This volume provides the origins and meanings of the names of genera and species of extant vascular plants, with the genera arranged alphabetically from A to C.

The synonymy lists all genera that were included in source manuals or were accepted for the U.S. regions by the Smithsonian Institution. The synonymy does not include all accepted names, so do not use it unless you have first looked at the list for the region you are concerned with.
