4861! Melica aristata, Sp. nov.
6118! Festuca microstachys var. ciliata
6073. Festuca pumiflora, Thunb.
6100! 5067? 5066! Festi violaceus, Gaud.??
[This is called F. rubra in Berry's Rocky Mt. Plants
& is the F. rubra of Bourgeous collection. Bentham
puts F. rubra under F. ovina & very properly as I
puts F. rubra under F. ovina var. rubra or violacea
Write. This should be F. ovina var. rubra or violaceus
if it more nearly resembles that form.] Old Danm
all. 11,000 ft.
6085! Elymus condensatus Reel.
6080! Elymus libricens Lo.
5023! Triticum caninum, Scrib.
[This is what I have called from description only, Triticum
violaceum Hornem. Vide Anderson Gram. Scanl. p. 5- We
have no root to these species]
6468 Triticum aegilopoites
Could it be T. dingseni of Jovey.
[I have no specimens in either Breems or the State
Set]
Boulder's Specimen of an un-determined Festuca, "It is
the last Festuca in my lot and 4704 of Cate" In all
cases I have no specimens to identify it by, though I
probably have it from Breems Collection -
4669. is a Lecturus which he thinks of working out.
So I will leave it for him. It is quite distinct from
F. paniculata in its simple spike, the position of
the panicle with a tuft of hairs at
its glumes, armed palea with a tuft of hairs)
the base. & - It should be compared with Scot's (Rais)
6110! Triticum sebesan mixed with T. aegilopoites 792
