Notes
Park Species Detail: Hamilton, 2005: Correspondence with Arthur Haines, Research Botanist, New England Wild Flower Society: "Robert Freckmann and Michael Lelong are the authors of the Dichanthelium (and Panicum) treatment in the Flora of North America/Grass Manual work. "…..more and more books and web checklists will be using the name they proposed (Dichanthelium acuminatum ssp. spretum)." Panicum spretum and Dichanthelium spretum are older names, referenced in Gleason & Cronquist 1991 and Radford 1968., Park Species Data Source: Lam, 1985
