[edit]I just realized there's an article titled Acalypha ostryaefolia. I'm not sure what the history of the spelling is, but ostryifolia seems to be used in all current sources. This 1974 article pointed out that the spelling should be ostryifolia, without giving any details.
I noticed that Acalypha ostryaefolia has some sourcing issues. For example the second sentence says "It is a native of North and Central America and is generally considered a weed", citing the USDA PLANTS database, but that web page only says that it's native in the US range, and says nothing about its being a weed. I haven't gone through all sources, so hopefully the rest is verifiable elsewhere, but if not, information that isn't verifiable should be deleted rather than merged.
