Taxonomy
Sisyrinchium bermudiana was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753.[4] The first described species in the genus Sisyrinchium, it is thus the type species. Linnaeus's specific epithet bermudiana was not an adjective (and thus does not have to agree in gender with Sisyrinchium) but a noun in apposition, derived from the earlier genus name Bermudiana.[5] He showed this by capitalizing the epithet, but modern practice is to use lower-case for all epithets.
