Flora of New Zealand - Gramineae Supplement III: Panicoideae

Abstract

The identity of Rottboellia uniflora A.Cunn. collected in Northland in 1834 by R. Cunningham is resolved as Paspalum vaginatum Sw.; confusion with Zoysia sp. attributable to Hooker is clarified. No solution to the exact disposition of Paspalum tenax Trin. can be proffered, despite extensive enquiries; it remains in Incertae Sedis. Hemarthria uncinata is to be added to the list of naturalised andropogonoid species. © 2005 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
