Discussion

Rostraria cristata is native to Europe. In the Flora region, it is found in California, around the Gulf of Mexico, and in New York State. Plants with hirsute glumes and lower lemmas belong to Rostraria cristata (L.) Trin. var. cristata; those with glumes and lemmas that are almost glabrous apart from their ciliate keels belong to R. cristata var. glabriflora (Trautv.) Dogan.

When included in Koeleria, Rostraria cristata is called K. phleoides (Vill.) Pers.
