Cyrilla racemiflora L.

**
Small-leaved forms have gone by the name C. parvifolia. According to Thomas (1960: 99-103), the two forms "intergrade completely in certain local populations, and there is evidence of considerable gene exchange throughout the area of overlap" (see also Godfrey & Wooten 1981; FNA, vol. 8). Thomas (1960: 103-104) also did not find C. arida to be distinct morphologically or by habitat. See also: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/19201688
