Eragrostis brownii

#71 They called me Eragrostis brownii, also known as Megastachya brownii, Eragrostis benthamii, and Poa brownii. I pay homage to the male botanists George Bentham, and Robert Brown, Clair Alan Brown, Nicholas Edward Brown, Addison Brown, Andrew Phillip Brown, or William Brown. They first catalogued me in 1834.
