Festuca densipaniculata is a species of grass in the family Poaceae. It is found only in Ecuador.
Festuca (fescue) is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the grass family Poaceae. They are evergreen or herbaceous perennial tufted grasses with a height range of 10–200 cm (4–79 in) and a cosmopolitan distribution, occurring on every continent except Antarctica. The genus is closely related to ryegrass (Lolium), and recent evidence from phylogenetic studies using DNA sequencing of plant mitochondrial DNA shows that the genus lacks monophyly. As a result, plant taxonomists have moved several species, including the forage grasses tall fescue and meadow fescue, from the genus Festuca into the genus Lolium, or alternatively into the segregate genus Schedonorus.
Festuca ovina, sheep's fescue or sheep fescue, is a species of grass. It is sometimes confused with hard fescue.
The Sierra Madre sparrow, also known as Bailey's sparrow, is an endangered, range-restricted, enigmatic American sparrow. It is endemic to Mexico and is threatened with extinction through habitat loss.
Festuca pratensis, the meadow fescue, is a perennial species of grass, which is often used as an ornamental grass in gardens, and is also an important forage crop.
Festuca rubra is a species of grass known by the common name red fescue, creeping red fescue or the rush-leaf fescue. It is widespread across much of the Northern Hemisphere and can tolerate many habitats and climates. It is best adapted to well-drained soils in cool, temperate climates; it prefers shadier areas and is often planted for its shade tolerance. Wild animals browse it, but it has not been important for domestic forage due to low productivity and palatability. It is also an ornamental plant for gardens.
Festuca caldasii is a species of grass in the family Poaceae. It is found only in Ecuador. It was first described in 1829.
Festuca chimborazensis is a species of grass in the family Poaceae. It is found only in Ecuador. It was first described in 1984.
Festuca flacca is a species of grass in the family Poaceae. It is found only in Ecuador.
Festuca glumosa is a species of grass in the family Poaceae. It is found in Ecuador and Colombia.
Festuca parciflora is a species of grass in the family Poaceae. It is found only in Ecuador.
Festuca sodiroana is a species of grass in the family Poaceae. Its habitat spans from southern Ecuador to northern Colombia. It grows at an altitude of 2600–3800 meters in forest clearings and margins of brooks or rivers.
Festuca vaginalis is a species of grass. It is found only in Ecuador.
Erebia epistygne, the spring ringlet, is a species of butterfly in the family Nymphalidae. It is found in France and Spain. Its natural habitat is temperate grassland.
Festuca idahoensis is a species of grass known by the common names Idaho fescue and blue bunchgrass. It is native to western North America, where it is widespread and common. It can be found in many ecosystems, from shady forests to open plains grasslands.
Tussock grasses or bunch grasses are a group of grass species in the family Poaceae. They usually grow as singular plants in clumps, tufts, hummocks, or bunches, rather than forming a sod or lawn, in meadows, grasslands, and prairies. As perennial plants, most species live more than one season. Tussock grasses are often found as forage in pastures and ornamental grasses in gardens.
The Webb River is a 16.8-mile-long (27.0 km) river in western Maine. It is a tributary of the Androscoggin River, which flows to the Kennebec River and ultimately the Atlantic Ocean.
Blatačko Lake is a natural lake 21 kilometers to the north-east of Konjic, in Konjic municipality, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The lake is a central feature of the natural & cultural-historical ensemble - cultural landscape - designated as National Monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Festuca parvigluma is a species of grass which can be found in Japan, Nepal, both South and North Koreas, China, Taiwan, and Northeast India.
Festuca aloha, also known as the aloha fescue, is a species of grass in the genus Festuca. This species is accepted and it appears to be endemic to Hawaii. This species seems to be critically endangered. Two forms of this species have been described.
