Assignment:

In examining a grass specimen, you eventually determine that it is a species belonging to the genus: Pennisetum. This species was actually described by Hochst and named vulgatum; however, he incorrectly placed it in the genus: Paspalum. Through your efforts, this mistake has been corrected and, as a consequence, your name will be added as an authority for this species. Provide the new Latin binomial, including the authorities, for this species and explain each of the components. Later, a colleague reports that she has had a similar experience; however, her discovery was of a distinct subspecies rough bluegrass with a bunch-type growth habit. Her last name is Smith and the subspecies designation is vertica. Provide the Latin name of this subspecies, including the authorities, and explain each of the components. Finally, you have just discovered a new fescue (Festuca) species that is hairlike in texture. What Latin name, including the authority, will you give to this species?
