Dave,

Yes. I agree.

I contacted the RHS Daffodil Register species contact person, who provided the following information and list.

Many names referenced in literature going back many years, are considered to be incorrect today.

Just because they appear somewhere, does not make them valid names, according to the International Daffodil Register.

That is why the Daffodil Register is trying to create a correct list using genetic testing nowadays.

Here is the list of Species on the International Daffodil Register provided to me by the RHS Species coordinator. The accepted species names are in dark.
