Type protologue.

Im Hochgebirge, auf sumpfigen Wiesen, auf Urgestein, 5500 ft, C. Koch s.n. (holotype: B, probably destroyed).

Note.

There is no location in the species protologue beyond the article title "Beitrage zu einer Flora des Orients". Tzvelev (1976) indicated this name and the next, Festuca polygama , probably apply to Eremopoa persica and that the types of these were in Berlin (B). Clayton et al. 2002+ (GrassBase) reflect the same information. RJS was unable to locate type material of either of these two names at B, P or via internet searches.
