Annotation: orth. var. as "microtheca" From IPNI:"Nuttall used the epithet "microtheca" as a noun in apposition," and this spelling is, therfore, grammatically correct." Furthermore, an attempt to overturn the original orthography was not recommended by the Nomenclature Committee for Vascular Plants, Applequist, Taxon 63(6): 1368 (2014).
