C. callitrichiis Barbey, Herbor. Levant. 165. tali. 10 (1882 

 iniiller in Verb. zool. bot. Ver. Wien, XLVIII, 648. 



This small, very pretty grass has been found 

 in Syria and Palestine in several places, but hitherto 

 not elsewhere. I have compared my specimens from 

 Cyprus with Barbey's type-specimens in Herb. Boiss, 

 and found them to be quite identical. 



Dry, unfertile grounds. Vatili (JH 337). 



C. elegans Desf. Fl. Atlant. L 82 (1798): Boiss. 

 Fl. orient. V, 571; Kotschy, Cypern. 182. 



Rocky places. Common on Pentadaktylos 

 (UK 337 and 380). 



Lataarckia aiirea llueui;li, ileth. 201 (179-1): 

 Boiss. Fl. orient. V, 570; Kotschy, (Jypern, 182. Cynosunis 

 aureus L. Sp. pi. ed. 1. 72 (1753); Sibth. et Smith. Prodr. I. 59.

 (SiBTHOEp), Limassol (UK). 



Sclerochloa dura V. Beauv. Aijrost. 177 (18121;

 72 (1753). Poa dura Scop. Fl. Cam. ed. 2. 70 (1772): Sibth. 

 et Smith. Prodr. I, 53. Festuca dura A'ill. PI. Pauph. II. 9-1 

 (1787); Kotschy, Cypern, 183.

Court-yards at Lefkoniko (according to 



Sintenis).

Fig. 8. Cynosurus callitrichiis Barbey. (^/c). 



Poa annua L. Sp. pi. ed. 1. 68 (1753): Boiss. Fl. orient. V. 601: Kotschy, Cypern. 180. 

 Cultivated places. Larnaka, Hagia Napa (UK 106). 



P. bnllmsa I., Sj). pi. ed. 1. 7o (1753); Boiss. Fl. orient. V, 605: Kotschy, t'yperu. 180. 



Common on dry hills. Nikosia (.JH 298).

P. compressa L. Sp. pi. ed. 1, 69 (1753); Sibth. et Sinitli, Pruilr. I, 55; Boiss. Fl. orient. V. 602. 

 Only recorded by Sibthorp. 



P. tririalis L. Sp. jd. ed. 1. 67 (1753); Buiss. Fl. cirient. V. 602. 



My specimens most probably belong to the subsp. P. attica Boiss, et Heldr. in Boiss. Diagn. 

 Ser. 2, Xni 57 (1853) [= P. 2»-alensis fl attica Boiss. Fl. orient. V, 601 (188i)], but as they lack 

 sterile clusters a reliable decision is very difficult. 



Wet places in the forest at Prodromo (JH 904).
