Vol. 1 GRAMINEAE 85 



DOUBTFUL AND EXCLUDED SPECIES 



Chloris crinita Lagasca Varied. Cienc. 4 (1805) 143; Kunth Enum. 1 

 (1833) 268; Miq. Fl. Ind. Bat. 3 (1857) 389; F.-Vill. Novis. App. 

 (1882) 320. 

 "Insulae Philippinae" Kunth. This was probably based on a Mala- 

 spina expedition collection erroneously localized. Judging from the de- 

 scription it is not a Chloris. 



Chloris truncata R. Br. Prodr. (1910) 186; Kunth Enum. 1 (1833) 266; 

 Miq. Fl. Ind. Bat. 3 (1857) 387; F.-Vill. Novis. App. (1882) 320. 

 Chloris dolichostachya Lagasca Gen. Sp. Nov. (1816) 5. 

 Lagasca's species was credited to the Philippines by him; Link has 

 reduced it to Chloris truncata R. Br., an Australian species. Nothing 

 conforming to it is known from the Philippines. 



Chloris inflata Link Hort. Berol. 1 (1827) 105. 



"Calif.; Ins. Philipp." Link. The species was probably based on a 

 Haenke collection, probably erroneously localized, at least as to the Philip- 

 pine reference. 



Chloris radiata Sw.; F.-Vill. Novis App. (1882) 320. 



Chloris rufescens Lagasca Varied. Cienc. 4 (1805) 143; Kunth Enum. 3 

 (1833) 268; Miq. Fl. Ind. Bat. 3 (1857) 388; F.-Vill. Novis. App. 

 (1882) 320. 

 **Insulae Philippinae" Kunth. Probably not a Philippine species but 

 an erroneously localized Malaspina Expedition collection. 



Chloris rhachitricha Steud. Syn. PI. Glum. 1 (1854) 205; Miq. Fl. 

 Ind. Bat. 3 (1857) 388; F.-Vill. Novis. App. (1882) 320. 

 "Cuming no. 111. Ins. Philip." This number of Cuming's Philippine 

 collection is a fern, and none of his Philippine grasses conform to Steudel's 

 description. The reference may be to Cuming's previous South American 

 collection.
