UJH., but these have a looser panicle and they are always pallid and wholly glabrous; still there occur panicles with a violet suffusion, e.g. the Serbian plant Koeleria paparistoi UJH. : Serbia oecidentalis. In graminosis apud Kraljeva Voda in montibus Zlatibor (serpentinis, ca 980 m.s.m. 18, VII. 1923. Dr. FRANT. A. NOVAK. No. 207 [PRC]). However, its spikelets are rigid, scarious, the blades rigid, caesius and convolute, and also their anatomical structure different. In the Retyezát Massif of the South Carpathians, Koeleria eriostachya PANC. is a relict plant; CSŰRÖS described this plant as Koeleria pyramidata (LAM.) DC. var. hirsuta CSŰRÖS. Since Koeleria mollis MANN, a plant of great stature, lives also in Transylvania, the confusion is understandable. However, Koeleria eriostachya PANÖ. differs from Koeleria mollis MANN by a more compacter spikelet, a hirsute panicle, and the leaves having smaller pili; the structure of the leaf-epiderm is also different. I do not propose to separate it from the other series, since either their habits are quite different or they do not inhabit the area of the Series. K. MALY (1928) mentioned Koeleria eriostachya var. carniolica (Kern.) from Bosnia and Serbia in Iiis work discussing the phytogeographical distribution of Koelerias in the Balkan Peninsula. I have not yet seen these specimens, but there are from this area, in the collection of the University of Prague, plants resembling Koeleria eriostachya in stature, with glabrous panicles, but representing another species. It is possible that MALY regarded these plants as belonging to Koeleria eriostachya PANÖ. or var. carniolica (KERN.), respectively. However, the specimens I saw differ in morphological and anatomical features from the nominate form and its variety mentioned above. Koeleria carniolica KERN, can be satisfactorily distinguished from Koeleria eriostachya PANÖ., nor do their areas meet. It is understandable why I cannot avail myself of the data contained in HAYEK'S Prodromus. The are of the Series, as far as I was able to ascertain, extends from Montenegro (Scardua) through Serbia to the Stara Planina, the Rila and the Pirin Mountains. Though the latest Bulgarian floral work (JORDANOV, KITANOV & VALEV 1963) records the species from the Rhodope, I have not seen specimens from this locality
