NOTES. — A species restricted to mangrove forests. Rafinesque (1838: 90) described Rhizaeris as a new genus “ very diff. from Conocarpus ”, then “ R. alba Raf. , Conocarpus racemosa L. auct. The white Mangrove of Antilles”. He apparently thought that C. racemosus L. was indeed a Conocarpus , that this name had been wrongly used for the white mangrove, and accordingly he proposed a new name. He did not realized that C. racemosus is actually the white mangrove and had already been transferred to Laguncularia ( Gaertner 1807) .
