Eragrostis rottleri Stapf

Rottler’s Lovegrass (Eragrostis rottleri)

Rottler’s Lovegrass is known exclusively by the type material which was collected already in 1779 somewhere in the vicinity of the city of Tharangambadi (formerly Tranquebar) at the eastern coast of Tamil Nadu, India.

This species is certainly extinct.
