48 PATAGONIAN EXPEDITIONS: BOTANY. 



Trisetum Dozei, according to Franchet in Miss. Cap Horn., V, p. 385, 

 is only a robust form of Aira elatior, and might, consequently, be placed 

 as synonymous with the present species. 



DESCHAMPSIA PULCHRA Nees et Mey. Macl., p. 203. 



Any confirmation of Macloskie's statement of the occurrence of this 

 species in Patagonia I cannot find, and it should, therefore, be withdrawn. 

 According to Desvaux in Flor. Chil., VI, p. 336, and Steudel in his work, 

 Syn. Glum., I, p. 220 (sub Aira), it belongs to Chili. D. 



Page 203 : Deschampsia tenella Phil. (1899) conflicts with the same name 

 given in 1890 by Petrie to a New Zealand plant; but it is (Macl., p. 200) 

 only a synonym of D. aciphylla (Franch). D. 



TRISETUM Pers. 

 T. DOZEI Franch. Macl., p. 204. 



Should be deleted, being synonymous with Deschampsia Kingii (Hook, 

 fil.) Desv. 



T. REPENS (L.) MAGELLANICUM DeSV. Macl., p. 205. 



This refers to Agropyrum magellanicum (Desv.) Hack., which, by 

 mistake, has got a place also amongst the Trisetum species. Cf. Mac- 

 loskie's description, p. 205, with that of Agropymm magellanicum, p. 246 



Under this species Macloskie inserts T. secundum Kth. read Triticum 

 secundum, not Trisetum which refers to Agropyrum secundum Presl, 

 or, properly speaking, to Agropyrum magellanicum (Desv.) Hack. var. 

 secundum (Presl.). Macl., p. 247. D. 



T. SUBSPICATUM Beauv. var. BREVIGLUME Hack. Apud 



Skottsb. Flor. Feuerl., p. 6. 



Differt a typo glumis sterilibus quam fertiles i-i brevioribus, fertili- 

 bus integris, brevius aristatis. 



Observatory I. (close to Staaten L). 



T. SUBSPICATUM Beauv. var. FUEGIANUM Hack. Apud Skottsb. 



Flor. Feuerl., p. 6. 



Differt a typo glumis sterilibus fertiles asquantibus, his mucronato- 

 bidentatis.
