Elliottia pyroliflora (Bong.) Brim & Stevens
See Cladothamnus, Volume I, page 629. In view of the remark in the introductory note on page 629, it should be added that Ledum is not related to Elliottia, even though in some classifications they are placed in the same group and have in common a corolla with free petals, an unusual feature in the Ericaceae.
Modern name
Some names used by Bean have now been superseded and are no longer familiar. To ensure that all plants can be easily found, under any name, we have cross-referenced to The Plant List, a collaboration between RBG Kew, Missouri Botanical Gardens and other organisations, which aims to provide a currently accepted name for any plant. Not all taxonomists will agree with all Plant List nomenclature, but it provides a baseline to compare names. For each species above, clicking on the Modern Name will link to the entry for that name on The Plant List website.
