494 CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE NATIONAL HERBARIUM. 
Dinebra secunda Roem. & Schult. Syst. Veg. 2: 711. 1817. Based upon Cynosurus 
secundus Pursh. 
Dinebra verticillata Wight; Steud. Syn. Pl. Glum. 1: 209. 1854. A name cited as 
synonym of Leptochloa wightiana. It is from India and probably not a member of 
this group. 
Enteropogon melicoides Nees; Steud. Syn. Pl. Glum. 1:216. 1854. A manuscript 
name published as a synonym of Futriana enteropogon. 
Erucaria Cervantes, La Naturaleza (Mexico City) 1: 347. 1870. There is no way 
of determining with any certainty what the species described are, and consequently 
they must be rejected, It is not certain that all of the species belong to this group. 
Cervantes proposed the following names: Hrucaria glandulosa, E. villosa, E. hirsuta, 
FE. lutescens, FE. monostachia, EF. tetrastachia, E. longifolia, and FE. glabra. Fournier 
has suggested that E. glabra is B. curtipendula, The description of #. glandulosa and 
FE. hirsuta both suggest B. hirsuta. Erucaria lutescens and E. monostachia suggest 
B. procumbens or B. scorpiodes. Erucaria villosa may be B. chondrosioides. Erucaria 
tetrastachia may be B. gracilis, 
Eutriana antillarum Steud. Syn, Pl. Glum. 1: 217. 1854, Based upon “ Aristida 
antillarum Lam.” 
Eutriana ? chloridea Kunth, Enum, Pl. 1: 280, 1833. Based upon Dineba chloridea 
Presl. 
Eutriana karwinskiana Steud. Nom. Bot. ed. 2. 1: 620. 1840. A name only, from 
Trinius’s manuscript. 
Eutriana ledebourii Trin. Gram. Unifl. 238, 1824. Although citing Dinebra secunda 
Roem, & Schult. (Cynosurus secundus Pursh) as a synonym, Trinius gives the habitat 
as St. Domingo. A specimen named £F. ledebourii in the Trinius Herbarium, is 
doubtful. The spikelet is that of a Bouteloua, but the spikes have but a single spike- 
let. It does not seem probable, then, that this is the same as B. americana, but I am 
not able to decide without more material. 
Eutriana melicoides Steud, Syn. Pl. Glum. 1: 216, 1854. The first synonym cited 
is an East Indian plant. 
Eutriana villosa Steud. Nom. Bot. ed. 2. 1: 620, 1840. No description is given, and 
the synonyms are only manuscript names. 
Ischaemum melicoides Koenig; Willd. Sp. Pl. 42: 941. 1806; Steud. Syn. Pl. Glum. 
1: 216. 1854. Steudel cites this name as a synonym of Futriana enteropogon. The 
plant is from India and probably does not belong in this group. 
Leptochloa arabica Kunth, Rév. Gram. 1: 91, 1829. Based upon Dinebra arabica 
Jacq. 
Pappophorum alopecuroideum Vahl, Symb. Bot. 3:10. pl. 51. 1794. This has been 
referred tc Bouteloua megapotamica, but Vahl’s figures show it to be true Pappophorum. 
Tripogon bromoides Roth, Nov. Pl. Sp. Ind. Or. 79. 1821. The generic description 
excludes Bouteloua; Roem. & Schult. Syst. Veg. 2: 600. 1817. An earlier mention 
of the name based on Triathera bromoides Roth in manuscript.
