Enneapogon persicus FOR VALIDATION :: Rao Jodha Desert Rock Park

[Dinesh Valke]

Rao Jodha Desert Rock Park  Jodhpur Date: October 24, 2018 ... Altitude: about 300 m (980 feet) asl

¿ Enneapogon persicus ?   Dear friends, I am aware that ID of grass cannot be attempted with photos alone; yet I am posting few photos with the hope that it can be identified at least to genus level, based on distribution and general appearance. The posted grass was growing in some patches of the park.

Regards. Dinesh

Thanks Usha di.

And I am depending solely on the third picture - that it helps in recognizing the grass rather than identifying !

Regards.

Enneapogon brachystachyus found gregariously in deserts of India and Africa. Presently, it is considered as a synonym of E.desvauxii, which is an American species. However, further study is required to analyse the similarities and differences between the two. Please see the specimen from Bikaner seen by Bor in GBCIP - (D.Gupta s.n., Bikanir (I don't know where it is kept)). Enneapogon persicus is found in higher elevations above 1000m in dry arid slopes.

Is there any way to get all the post from 'Rao Jodha Desert Rock Park'. I did not have backup as well.

At iNaturalist, Patrick Alexander is sure that the ID of posted plant is not Enneapogon desvauxii P.Beauv. ... he suggests Enneapogon cenchroides (Licht.) C.E.Hubb.

I too agree that E.brachystachyus should not be considered synonymous to E.desvauxii. 

E.cenchroides has a denser inflorescence with longer glumes and awns. Also four awns are shorter than the other five awns, whereas E.brachystachys has equal awns and shorter glumes. (Dissection photos with scale may confirm)

Thanks very much Garg ji and Manoj ji.
