Aristida jerichoensis is rarely recorded in the ACT, and this sighting represents one of only a small handful of records. This is a significant record for the ACT.

I think the presence of a ventral furrow on the lemma and the open character of the infloresence makes this A.jerichoensis. it came out fairly easily for me in AusGrasses.

I obviously can't see the ventral furrow but am happy with your ID if you are.
