==Distribution and ecology==
+
==Anatomy and micromorphology==
Widespread and cosmopolitan or Eurasian origin, introduced to South America from Europe. While no specimens of ''{{Taxon name|A. stolonifera}}'' were verified from Departamento Boyacá at US or encountered during extensive fieldwork in the region, the species is cited for Boyacá in the checklist (Giraldo-Cañas et al. 2016<ref name="B10">{{aut|Giraldo-Cañas D}}, {{aut|Londoño X}}, {{aut|Clark L}} (2016) {{Taxon name|Poaceae}}. In: Bernal R Gradstein S Celis M (Eds) Catálogo de plantas y líquenes de Colombia (Vol.2). Instituto de Ciencias Naturales, Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Bogotá D.C., 2127–2205.</ref >) and specimens were found at US from the neighboring Departamento Cundinamarca in the Cordillera Oriental meaning it likely that the species occurs in Boyacá.
+
Leaf blades flat to convolute in transversal section; adaxial furrows medium-sized to deep, wide; adaxial ribs rounded; keel absent; first order bundles circular to slightly elliptical in outline, sheath interrupted adaxially and abaxially, abaxial and adaxial sclerenchyma in girders, narrowing towards the bundle; second order bundles circular in outline, sheath interrupted abaxially, abaxial and adaxial sclerenchyma in strands; intercostal sclerenchyma absent; leaf margins with well-developed sclerenchyma caps, rounded; colorless cells absent (Fig. 31D, E). Lemmas without transversal thickenings, prickle hairs abundant to scarce (Fig. 32B).

Introduced. ''{{Taxon name|Agrostis stolonifera}}'' is native to Eurasia and northern North America (Harvey 2007<ref name="B22">{{aut|Harvey M}} (2007) ''{{Taxon name|Agrostis}}''. In: Barkworth M Capels K Long S Anderton L Piep M (Eds) Flora of North America North of Mexico (Vol.24) Oxford University Press, New York, 633–662. [http://floranorthamerica.org/Agrostis http://floranorthamerica.org/Agrostis]</ref >). In the study zone, this taxon has been collected from the Mexican states of Baja California and Veracruz (Fig. 26C). ''{{Taxon name|Agrostis}}'' has also been reported from the southern United States and Mexico City, also from the states of Chiapas, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Hidalgo, Jalisco, México, Michoacán, Nuevo León, Puebla, and Tlaxcala (Dávila et al. 2018<ref name="B9">{{aut|Dávila P}}, {{aut|Mejía-Saulés M}}, {{aut|Soriano-Martínez A}}, {{aut|Herrera-Arrieta Y}} (2018) Conocimiento taxonómico de la familia {{Taxon name|Poaceae}} en México.Botanical Sciences96(3): 462–514. https://doi.org/10.17129/botsci.1894</ref >; Sánchez-Ken 2019<ref name="B61">{{aut|Sánchez-Ken J}} (2019) Riqueza de especies, clasificación y listado de las gramíneas ({{Taxon name|Poaceae}}) de México. Acta Botánica Mexicana 126: e1379. https://doi.org/10.21829/abm126.2019.1379</ref >), but no specimens from these states have been seen. This taxon has been collected on stream edges and open areas of pine forests, between 1800–2100 m a.s.l. (Fig. 27C). There are more records of this species in the study zone, on databases (GBIF 2023d<ref name="B20">GBIF (2023d) ''{{Taxon name|Agrostis stolonifera}}'' L. https://doi.org/10.15468/dl.qez3gb [Accesed 29.7.2023]</ref >), but not all of them have images, and thus we were unable to confirm their identity.

==Phenology==
 +
Specimens with spikelets have been collected from June to August (Fig. 28C).

==Commentaries==
 +
''{{Taxon name|Agrostis stolonifera}}'' is often confused with ''{{Taxon name|A. gigantea}}'' (see the note under the description of that species). This is a variable species and several infraspecific taxa have been recognized (e.g., Pohl and Davidse 1994<ref name="B49">{{aut|Pohl R}}, {{aut|Davidse G}} (1994) ''{{Taxon name|Agrostis}}''. In: Davidse G Sousa Sánchez M Chatter A (Eds) Flora Mesoamericana (Vol.6) Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico City, 237–240. [http://legacy.tropicos.org/NamePage.aspx?nameId=40034657&projectId=3 http://legacy.tropicos.org/NamePage.aspx?nameId=40034657&projectId=3]</ref >; Rúgolo and Molina 1997<ref name="B57">{{aut|Rúgolo Z}}, {{aut|Molina A}} (1997) Las especies del género ''{{Taxon name|Agrostis}}'' L. ({{Taxon name|Gramineae}}: {{Taxon name|Agrostideae}}) de Chile. Gayana.Botánica54: 91–156. [http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/91363 http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/91363]</ref >). The plants from the study zone fit well in {{Taxon name|A. stolonifera var. palustris}}, which is distinguished from the typical variety in the more contracted panicles, up to 3 cm wide, and smaller spikelets of 1.6–2 mm long (vs. more open panicles, up to 6 cm wide, spikelets 2–2.5 mm long in the typical variety). The width of the panicles could be related to the age of the panicles, since they become contracted after anthesis, and thus varieties are not recognized here.<br />
 +
This taxon is also confused with ''{{Taxon name|Polypogon viridis}}'' (Gouan) Breistr., from which it is distinguished in the spikelets disarticulating above the glumes (vs. disarticulation below the glumes, with a pedicel fragment in ''{{Taxon name|P. viridis}}'').
 +
 
 +
==Conservation status==
 +
Since ''{{Taxon name|Agrostis stolonifera}}'' is an introduced taxon in the study zone, its conservation status is considered as Least Concern (LC).

Name

Agrostis stolonifera L., Sp. Pl. 1: 62. 1753.Wikispecies linkPensoft Profile

Type

Herb. A. van Royen s.n. (lectotype, designated by Widén (1971[1]: 77): L (L0059234 [image!])).

Description

Plants perennial, stoloniferous. Tillers extravaginal, with cataphylls. Stolons up to 1(–2) m long. Culms (8–)15–60 cm long, erect, decumbent at the base, nodes (2–)3–7, glabrous, lower nodes rooting, internodes glabrous. Leaves mostly cauline; sheaths 2.5–8 cm long, usually shorter than the internodes, glabrous or scaberulous; ligules 1–7 mm long, longer than wide, dorsally scaberulous, apices rounded to truncate, erose to lacerate; blades (1–)2–10 cm long, (1–)2–6 mm wide, linear, flat, becoming convolute when dry scaberulous on both surfaces. Panicles (3–)4–20 cm long, 0.5–3 cm wide, open at anthesis, becoming contracted, dense, lanceolate, sometimes spiciform; branches appressed to ascending, branching from below mid-length, scaberulous, inferior branches 2–6 cm long, lateral branches often with spikelets near their base; pedicels 0.5–3.3 mm long, appressed to ascending, scaberulous. Spikelets 1.6–2 (–3) mm long, greenish, often tinged with purple; glumes subequal to unequal, lanceolate, apices acute to shortly acuminate, 1-veined, scaberulous on the keel, lower glume 1.6–2 (–3) mm long, upper glume 1.4–2(1.6–2 (–3) mm long; callus puberulous, with 2 bunches of short trichomes, sometimes inconspicuous; lemmas 1.4–2 mm long, elliptic to oblong, apices entire, acute to obtuse, sometimes toothed, 3(5)-veined, veins inconspicuous or prominent distally, unawned, rarely awned from above mid-length, awn up to 1.5 mm long, inserted 0.8–1.5 mm above the base, straight or weakly geniculate; paleas present, 0.7–1.4 mm long, 2-veined, glabrous; anthers 3, 0.9–1.5 mm long. Caryopsis 0.9–1.3, elliptic; endosperm solid. 2n= 28, 35, 42 (Harvey 2007[2]).

Anatomy and micromorphology

Leaf blades flat to convolute in transversal section; adaxial furrows medium-sized to deep, wide; adaxial ribs rounded; keel absent; first order bundles circular to slightly elliptical in outline, sheath interrupted adaxially and abaxially, abaxial and adaxial sclerenchyma in girders, narrowing towards the bundle; second order bundles circular in outline, sheath interrupted abaxially, abaxial and adaxial sclerenchyma in strands; intercostal sclerenchyma absent; leaf margins with well-developed sclerenchyma caps, rounded; colorless cells absent (Fig. 31D, E). Lemmas without transversal thickenings, prickle hairs abundant to scarce (Fig. 32B).

Distribution and habitat

Introduced. Agrostis stolonifera is native to Eurasia and northern North America (Harvey 2007[2]). In the study zone, this taxon has been collected from the Mexican states of Baja California and Veracruz (Fig. 26C). Agrostis has also been reported from the southern United States and Mexico City, also from the states of Chiapas, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Hidalgo, Jalisco, México, Michoacán, Nuevo León, Puebla, and Tlaxcala (Dávila et al. 2018[3]; Sánchez-Ken 2019[4]), but no specimens from these states have been seen. This taxon has been collected on stream edges and open areas of pine forests, between 1800–2100 m a.s.l. (Fig. 27C). There are more records of this species in the study zone, on databases (GBIF 2023d[5]), but not all of them have images, and thus we were unable to confirm their identity.

Phenology

Specimens with spikelets have been collected from June to August (Fig. 28C).

Commentaries

Agrostis stolonifera is often confused with A. gigantea (see the note under the description of that species). This is a variable species and several infraspecific taxa have been recognized (e.g., Pohl and Davidse 1994[6]; Rúgolo and Molina 1997[7]). The plants from the study zone fit well in A. stolonifera var. palustris, which is distinguished from the typical variety in the more contracted panicles, up to 3 cm wide, and smaller spikelets of 1.6–2 mm long (vs. more open panicles, up to 6 cm wide, spikelets 2–2.5 mm long in the typical variety). The width of the panicles could be related to the age of the panicles, since they become contracted after anthesis, and thus varieties are not recognized here.
This taxon is also confused with Polypogon viridis (Gouan) Breistr., from which it is distinguished in the spikelets disarticulating above the glumes (vs. disarticulation below the glumes, with a pedicel fragment in P. viridis).

Conservation status

Since Agrostis stolonifera is an introduced taxon in the study zone, its conservation status is considered as Least Concern (LC).
