P. pubescens, B. Br. ; Prod. ? 5. If I am correct in identifying 
the plant, common at Harvey's Cjeek, as Brown's plant, then I 
think, if not allowed to rank as a species, it should undoubtedly 
as a marked variety. The whole plant is softly pubescent, attains 
about 2 feet in height, is of spreading habit, and roots from the 
lower nodes. The leaves are broad with loose sheaths, the short 
scarious ligula hidden in long silky hairs; panicle of from 8 to 
14 somewhat erect spikes, the longest of which are about 2 in. ; 
spikelets orbicular, about \ line diameter; glumes covered with 
a short purplish pubescence. The description given in Brown's 
Prodromus is insufficient to identify the plant without having a 
typical specimen to compare with. This Harvey's Creek grass, how- 
ever, is so very distinct from the P. orhiculare, Eorst., which — with 
P. polystachyum and P. puhescens of E. Brown — Bentham, in El. Austr. 
vii. 460, places under P. scroliculatum of Linnjeus, that I think it 
should be kept distinct.
