Polypogon (includes xAgropogon; Poaceae) 4b:281
Tasmania has four introduced species of Polypogon. These have dense inflorescences of one-flowered spikelets.  Annual beardgrass (P. monspeliensis) is a common and very distinctive weed, in which the spikelets have soft awns that give the whole inflorescence a feathery appearance. 
P. lutosus is perennial beardgrass.
