Thomas J. Davis Letter : July 3, 1864
Davis writes Lucinda informing her that they will be leaving Chattanooga for Kingston tomorrow, and that the Regiment and Pioneer Corps will guard the Division Wagons. He details that he is feeling better since they left Huntsville, and while he could stay in Chattanooga's convalescent camp, he would rather go with the Corps. Davis notes that three men from the Company will be staying behind, H. Baker, P. Mooney, and D. Caulkins. He further details that while skirmishing has continued, there is no real military news. Davis details that one year ago Confederate General Pemberton and Commanding General Grant held a consultation preparing for the surrender of Vicksburg. Davis concludes by writing that he does not expect much celebration for the 4th

Coffea neoleroyi A. P. Davis, nom. nov.
Coffea neoleroyi A.P.Davis, nom. nov. Basionym:— Psilanthus leroyi Bridson (1982: 857). Type: UGANDA. Karamoja District. Karapedo river, nr. Mt. Zulia, 4000 ft. [1220 m], March 1960, J. Wilson 911 (holotype EA!, isotype K!). Distribution: —Southwest Ethiopia, northeast Uganda. TDWG: 24 ETH; 25 UGA. Characteristics:— Coffea neoleroyi differs from all other African Coffea species formerly placed in Psilanthus by its small obovate leaves (apex rounded), and from C. semsei (Bridson) A.P.Davis by having rounded (vs. distinctly apiculate) calyculi lobes and pedicellate fruits (vs. sessile). Further morphological information for this species can be found in Leroy (1981) and Bridson (1982). Notes: —A new name is required for this species as there is already a Coffea species with the same specific epithet: C. leroyi A.P. Davis (Davis & Rakotonasolo 2000).Published as part of Davis, Aaron P., 2010, Six species of Psilanthus transferred to Coffea (Coffeeae, Rubiaceae), pp. 41-45 in Phytotaxa 10 on page 43, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.10.1.6, http://zenodo.org/record/489978
Coffea neobridsoniae A. P. Davis, nom. nov.
Coffea neobridsoniae A.P.Davis, nom. nov. Basionym:— Psilanthus bridsoniae Sivar., Biju & P.Mathew (1992: 216). Type: INDIA. Kerala: Kappi-pacha Forest, near Peechi near Trissur, 7 March 1989, V.V. Sivarajan & S. D. Biju 43240 (holotype K!, isotype CALI), non C. bridsoniae Davis & Mvungi (2004). Distribution: —S. India. TDWG: 40 IND. Characteristics:— Deb (2020) synonymised P. bridsoniae under P. wightianus (Wall. ex Wight & Arn.) J.-F.Leroy and, in error, under P. fragrans. I have no hesitation in resurrecting P. bridsoniae and providing a new name in Coffea. Coffea neobridsoniae is very easily set apart from and C. wightiana Wall. ex Wight & Arn., and in particular by its rather open habit (vs. congested, spiny-looking), membranous leaves (vs. chartaceous) with 4 or 5 secondary veins (vs. 3 or 4), long-acuminate leaf apex (vs. acute), and presence of colleters at the base of the hypanthium (vs. absent). Note: —A new name is required for this species because there is already a Coffea species with the same specific epithet: C. bridsoniae Davis & Mvungi (2004).Published as part of Davis, Aaron P., 2010, Six species of Psilanthus transferred to Coffea (Coffeeae, Rubiaceae), pp. 41-45 in Phytotaxa 10 on page 43, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.10.1.6, http://zenodo.org/record/489978
