………………….
\n<\/span>Grass AL 5b is <\/span>Coelachyrum lagopoides<\/i>. This grass has been collected by Roxburgh, Schmid and Wight in 1815, 1818 and 1835 from Palamcottah, Erkincherry and other places in erstwhile Madras province and also from Myanmar. The present name was given in Grasses of Ceylon in 1968 by \u00a0Senaratna and is based on <\/span>Cynosurus lagopoides<\/i>. N.L. Bor has made this species as the type of a new genus <\/span>Coelachyropsis<\/i>, however, I am unaware of whether this new genus has been published or not. (This information is given in the errata of Grasses of Burma, Ceylon, India and Pakistan). You can refer to the following links:
