Muhlenbergia innomiuata. "Slender, gla- 

 brous, branching, one foot high; panicle 

 erect, capillary loose, branches in 3s and 5s, 

 whorled. Spikelets scarcely 1" long, much 

 shorter than their pedicels. Glumes pointed, 

 rough on the keel, the upper one shorter, bui 

 longer th<m the two equal obtuse three-veined 

 pales which have a few short beards at the 

 base. Comes nearest to M. Mexicana, but is 

 decidedly different by the characters itali- 

 cized." Thus described by Prof. Wood, Osa- 

 watomie, 1873.
