plants. Mrs. Chase seems to be right on the Sporobolus,
altho your plants lgok like negleotus. But negleotus has
glumes, lemma and palea equal and glabrous. Yours are not
so unequal, in fact»no more so than some negleotus we have,
so that I assume the glabrous oharaoter is about all that
oan be depended upon. I think I will send out several sheets
of sooalled negleotus to Mrs. Chase sometime and see what
she has to say about them. Someone should justly reauee it to
a variety of vaginiflorus. The minute pubescence on the lemma
of your plant is I suppose the character which makes it
vaginiflorus i
