Barry,

I've found Lowrie's descriptions' source. _Drosera_citrina_ was
published (validly) in "Phytologia" of August 1992. If publication was
really in August, my _D.chrysochila_ has to be reduced to synonymy, as
it was effectively published in October 8-(. Together with this, Lowrie
(& Carlquist, who is the botanist of them two) described a couple of
other taxa, most of which are useless synonyms of what we already know,
however. In the references they cite a paper in "Nuytsia" (in press)
which I haven't read yet (by Marchant & Lowrie, assumedly validating the
rest of the new names. Thus, our esteemed Australian colleague has
published quite actively last year (after tedious years of silence...).

I'll check out the date of effective publication for Lowrie's paper (& let you
know), but I fear you'll have to re-label your plants, again (sorry...).

Kind regards from Germany
