Festuca ovina, L. var. tenuifolia Syme (1873) = var. capillata, Hack. 
(‘Mon. Fest.' 1882). Hedge Court, Surrey, 1887. Professor Hackel 
confirms the name as well as the above synonym. The more recent 
varietal name has been adopted in Lon. Cat., Ed. VI 1 1 , but 
according to Hackel’s own showing ( 1 . c., p. 85) both of these names 
must give way to F. ovina^ \2ir. paludosa, Gaud., ‘FI. Helv. I.’ (1828).

is not B. erectus, v. viUosus^ Doell, ‘Flora d. Grossherz., Baden’ (which 
perhaps precedes Babingtcn). If you chcose to give a proper name to 
it, I should call it B. erecius^ v. subvitlosus, Begel et Tilling, ‘FI. Ajan,’
