Setaria plicata var. leviflora (Keng) S. L. Chen et G. Y. Sheng

光花狗尾草

Description from Flora of China

Basionym: Setaria excurrens (Trinius) Miquel var. levi-flora Keng ex S. L. Chen, Bull. Nanjing Bot. Gard. 1988–1989: 3. 1990.

Culms up to 70 cm tall. Upper lemma nearly smooth, shiny.

This combination was not previously validly published by Chen and Sheng (Bull. Bot. Res., Harbin 4(1):64. 1984) because the basionym was not at that time validly published. Chen and Sheng cited the basionym from Keng (Clav. Gen. Sp. Gram. Sin. 126, 227. 1957 and Fl. Ill. Pl. Prim. Sin. Gram. 707. 1959), where no Latin description was provided.

* Mountain slopes, in open forests. Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan.
