Deschampsia atropurpurea var. minor Vasey
date: label: Collection Date

name: label: Collector
content: James Melville Macoun
notes: label: Notes
content: Annotated as Deschampsia atropurpurea var. minor Vasey, and almost certainly the type of that name, but as annotated by S.J. Darbyshire (1989), "This sheet is material collected by James Macoun, James Bay, Quebec. Type of D. a. minor Vasey is by John Macoun, Vancouver Is., British Columbia." Added at later date, "Not a type PMP 91". No other specimen can be located at US that could be genuine type material of this name; alternatively, Vasey was simply mistaken in citing this collection as being from Vancouver Island.
