ones about 4 inches long, gradually shorter above, the lower third 
naked, the branchlets short (mostly less than one-half inch), numer- 
ous, loosely few-flowered, somewhat recurved. 
Spikelets purplish, less than a line long; the outer glumes un- 
equal, acute, the lower one one-third shorter than the upper, which is 
a little shorter than the flower and scabrous on the keel; flowering- 
glume lanceolate, acute, smooth, except on the keel near the apex; 
palet nearly equalling its glume. 
This is a well marked species, having somewhat the general ap- 
pearance of Leptochloa vmcronata^ with a more graceful panicle. It 
grows in Texas, and was discovered by Dr. S. B, Buckley, after whom 
It is named.
