64. Eragrostis nigricans Steud. {Poa nigricans HBK.).

66. Festuca tenella Willd. ? This appears to me to be 

 only a very delicate form of Festuca tenella Willd. Very likely 

 it is the Festuca mnratis Kth. var. pu77iila Fourn. Mex. PI. Enum., 

 Gram. 123, without description, reference being made to No. 554 

 Liebmann, collected at Cerro Leon. — La Chuparosa, October 17 

 (61). 



67. Bromus . Allied to B. Kalmii. The species 



of Bromus are exceeding variable, and their determination 

 difl&cult. I have nothing which matches this, but doubtless it 

 has been published. The slender culms are about 2 feet high, 

 and minutely pubescent; sheaths downwardly pubescent; panicle 

 small, the axis and branches pubescent. Empty glumes unequal, 

 the first lanceolate, acute, i -nerved, the second oblong, obtuse, 

 and 3-nerved; flowering glume finely pubescent all over, obtusely 

 bifid and short awned between the teeth. — La Chuparosa, Octo- 

 ber 17 (73).
