Remarks

C. odorata not ascribed to any author within the protologue. Rees (vol. 1, preface v), for Botany, acknowledged Sir, J. E. Smith (James Edward Smith 1759-1828), Dr. Woodville (William Woodville 1752-1805), Rev. Mr. Wood (William Wood 1745-1808); Smith's contributions are indicated by the letter S. Since Woodville died in 1805 and since he and Wood are not known to have worked together, the combining authorship of C. odorata is cited as Wood.
