Ewan (1979: 66) considers a specimen at The Natural History Museum in London (BM), identified by Pursh as Lonicera ciliosa, as an authentic Lewis and Clark collection. The specimen, from Canada and dated 17 Jul 1816, is L. hirsuta Eaton (Man. Bot., ed. 2: 307. 1818), an eastern North American species that occurs outside the areas visited by the two explorers (see Moulton, in press). The lectotype was collected near Kamiah in Idaho Co., Idaho, on 5 Jun 1806. Lewis mentions observing a "vining honeysickle" this day (Moulton, 1991: 335). Pursh gives the location as "On the banks of the Kooskoosky."
