[Taxacom] Vitis vinifera nomenclature

[Kirkbride, Joseph]

For nomenclature of economically important plant taxa, the first place
to always look is GRIN Taxonomy:
http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/taxfam.pl

For Vitis vinifera L. subsp. sylvestris (C.C. Gmel.) Hegi, the URL is:

IPNI lacks a great many infraspecific names because Index Kewensis did
not 
include them.  I suspect the Hegi name is from Gustav Hegi,

Illustrierte Flora von Mittel-Europa.

There were numerous infraspecific names validated there in
Campanulaceae.
