14 ALOPECURUS BULBOSUS. 



It differs from A. pratensis in having the floret shorter than the 

 glumes, and in being truncate instead of conical at the apex, and in 

 the glumes not being joined at the base. 



A. geniculatus is more blunt in the glumes. 



A. fulvus has a conical floret with a longer awn. 



The illustration is from a specimen gathered in Cheshire by Mr. 

 Joseph Sidebotham, of Manchester.
