96 TRIANDRIA DIGYNIA. 
Not recolleéting to fee this fpecies cultivated 
in any quantity in the Botanic gardens, I can 
form no judgment as to its agricultural value. 
I have given it as a native grafs on the autho- 
rity of Mr. J. T. Mackay. A. July.

B. Spike fimple, drooping, pointing one way: 
fpikets fitting, diftant, nearly cylindrical: 
awn longer than the bloflom: leaves hairy. 
Common in woods and hedges. It is a 
fpecies of little worth for cultivation, being a 
harfh looking grafs, not very prolific in either 
ftems or leaves. It appears beft on the fides 
of fhady ditches, and in low bufhy places at 
the verges of woods; and in fuch places may 
afford nourifhment to cattle in warm weather, 
when they withdraw to fhade, but I have often 
remarked they feemed not to like it.
