it cannot be identified with any other species inhabiting the mountains which harbour it. Exemplars from the Serbian Gobelje resemble more Koeleria eriostachya PANC., since their rhizome are not so bulbous, and owing to the explanate leaves they also appear wider; this is probably why PANCTC himself identified them as Koeleria eriostachya (though the labels of .IANKA'S and BOHATSCH'S specimens originate not from PANCJC, but from the above authors). It was the epidermal study of these plants which clarified XOVÁK'S specimen, and to Koeleria splendens PRESL var. albanica DOM., for a long time a mysterious plant also in my eyes. This plant has a bulbous character not only in its habit, but also wholly pallid owing to its xerothermous locality. On the basis of its leaf-anatomical structure, It was now easy to estabhsh its alliance: a variety on the areal margin of Koeleria tuzsonii UJH. Koeleria tuzsonii UJH. var. albanica (DÓM.)
