Agropyron japonicum Tracy, U.S.Dept.Agr., Div. Bot. Ann. Rept. 6. 1891, 



name only. Vasey; Wickson, Calif. Agr. Expt. Sta. Rept. 1895-1897: 275. 



pi. 14. f. 1. 1898. Name only. "A California-grown specimen", from 



New Zealand seed, said to have been sent to Dr. Vasey cannot be found in 



the U.S. National Herbarium. The plate seems to represent Brachypodium 



japonicum Miquel. 

 Agropyron junceum (L.) Beauv., Ess. Agrost. 102, 146, 180. 1812. Based 



on Triticum junceum L. 

 Triticum junceum L., Mant. PI. 2: 327. 1771. Europe. 



Festuca juncea Moench, Meth. PL 190. 1794. Based on Triticum junceum L. 

 Braconotia juncea Godr., Fl. Lorr. 3: 192. 1844. Based on Triticum junceum L. 

 The names Agropyron junceum and A. intermedium are here applied in accord 

 with Ascherson and Graebner (Syn. Mitteleur. Fl. 2: 654, 662. 1901) under 

 Triticum. Triticum junceum L. (Cent. PI. 1: 6. 1755; Amoen. Acad. 4: 266. 

 1759) which seems to have been generally ignored, appears to be the same as 

 T. interrnedium Host. Linnaeus later (Mant. PL 2: 327. 1771) published a 

 different species under the same name. This second name is the one used by 

 Ascherson and Graebner and other European botanists. The problem involves 

 study of European types not here available.

 (13) Agropyron pauciflorum (Schwein.) Hitchc, Amer. Jour. Bot. 21: 132. 1934. 



Based on Triticum pauciflorum Schwein. [Agropyron pauciflorum Schur, 



1859, cited as synonym of A. caninum Roem. and Schult., has never been 



validly published, hence Schweinitz's name must be taken up.] 

 Triticum pauciflorum Schwein., in Keat., Narr. Exped. St. Peter's River 2: 383. 



1824. Prairies of the St. Peter [Minn.], Say in 1823. 

 Triticum missuricum Spreng., Syst. Veg. 1: 325. 1825. Missouri River. 



Festuca spicata Pursh erroneously cited as synonym. The type has not been 



found. A specimen of Agropyron pauciflorum in the Vienna Herbarium, col- 

 lected by Geyer, " Missouri " in 1839, is labeled T. missuricum Spreng. There 



are no rhizomes. Sprengel's description is inadequate, but applies to A. 



pauciflorum. Triticum repens and other species having rhizomes are 



described as having "radice repente" while T. missuricum is not so described. 

 Triticum trachycaulum Link, Hort. Berol. 2: 189. 1833. Grown from seed 



collected by Richardson in North America.
