I5y I his nanif I understand a rather coarse grass, hal)itually 

 dilb'ring widely from the preeeding by its erect growth. It occurs 

 on plains, raised marine elay, on elayey sandy terraces al Ihe head of 

 fjf»rfis and along the banks of the rivers falling into Ihese. 



.\lueh scarcer than the preeeding species because of the absence 

 of suitable piaces; but covering extenrled areas wlien ornirring. though 

 not forminir dens.. e;irpcf< as the foregoing.
