Notes: 
The reference to an Urochloa zenkowskii is possibly a misprint: the preceding Panicum eruciforme is sometimes regarded as an Urochloa. There is no Urochloa zenkowskii. The Echinochloa and Panicum zenkowskii mentioned in IPNI are alternative names published by Schlechtendal [Linnaea 27 (post Feb 1856) 477], where it is suggested that Zenkowski might be Cienkowski. Schlechtendal refers to Regel [Ind.Sem.Hort.Petrop. (1853, q.v.)], and not the the present 1851 seedlist. (J.F.Veldkamp)
