Mez in Perk. Frag. Fl. Philip. (1904) 142, referred No. 39 Merrill to Panicum 

 crus-galli Linn., but the differences between typical P. crus-galli and P. stagninuni 

 are too great to warrant the reduction of the latter. Regarding our specimen of 

 No. 1422 Cuming, both Panicum colonum and P. stagninum are represented on the 

 sheet. Steudel cites as the type of Panicum. cumingianum No. 422 Cuming, 

 apparently a typograj^hical error for 1422; his description of the species applies 

 to Panicum colonum rather than to P. stagninum.
