- Comments
- The new combination in Dichanthelium was made in J. Bot. Res. Inst. Texas 10(1):35-38 (2016). The most recent Virginia specimens cited in this publication were from 1939 but specimens from Southampton and Caroline counties have been recently collected; additional specimens likely exist in herbaria. It had not previously been recognized in the Digital Atlas due to varying interpretations in other sources, mostly as a synonym of various taxa in sect. Angustifolia or sect. Lanuginosa. Further study is warranted.
- Habitat
- Sandy soils of pine and pine/oak woodlands or clearings; infrequent or rare in the Coastal Plain. The 2016 Southampton County specimen was collected from a small, sandy opening in a loblolly pine plantation, with Cuthbertia graminea. This tract also supports other southern pineland species such as Carphephorus bellidifolius and Quercus incana.
