The English name of Three- awned Grass is descriptive of a peculiarity of the genus, as each flowering scale bears triple awns. In PovertyM Grass and Slender Aristida the outer awns of the flowering scale are shorter than the middle awn and are upright, while the long middle awn spreads stiffly at right angles to the spike. When the spikelets are comparatively few, as in the species mentioned above, these horizontally spreading awns are so characteristic that from them
