MIS Checklists & Warburton/Gantz 1970 Eupogon Iris Species Publication

[MORRISJE1@aol.com]

John, 
 
I wonder why the 1970 The Eupogon Iris Species In Cultivation  published 
list of species is not in the AIS Check Lists?  Nor the SIGNA  Check Lists?  
Before my time in AIS as I joined in 1971.  I don't have  a copy but Keith 
Keppel does.  Probably Lynn Markham too.

Cindy,
 
We do not have a 1970 MIS Checklist (?).  We have the 1972  version and it 
does not have 75 different aphyllas, only five that I can  find:
 
'Aphylla Hungary' (Randolph 1961)
'Aphylla Wine-Red' (Warburton for Van Ness 1970) distributed earlier as  I. 
aphylla dark violet.
'Dacia' (Hanselmayer 1958) formerly labeled as I. aphylla  Taochia.
'Thisbe' (Dykes 1923)
'Prodan' (Hanselmayer 1958) tall form (IB) of I. aphylla.
There is reference to I. aphylla albescens in the cross for  'Najade' ; I. 
aphylla hungarica in cross for 'Spun  Honey'; I. aphylla dark violet 
('Aphylla Wine-Red') in cross for  'Whisperylla'; and, I. aphylla for 'Glycilla' 
(Van Ness 1960).
 
MIS Checklists were published in 1966, 1972, 1992 (through 1990), 2004  
(through 2002), and 2007 (through 2006).  
 
Keppel may be referring to Warburton-Gantz, The  Eupogon Iris Species in 
Cultivation, MIS Press, Westborough,  Massachusetts, 1970, Library of Congress 
Catalog Card Number:   70-123003.  The SIGNA Checklist most certainly 
should also list these  I. aphylla clones.  I don't know why they are not listed  
there.
 
Hope this helps.
 
Jim M.

Jean,  do you or Jim have the MIS 1970 Checklist? Keith Keppel said it lis
ted  75 different aphyllas! I would sure like to get a copy of  that list. 
They are not in the newest MIS check list, or in the 1999 SIGNA  checklist. 
Thanks,

Cindy
