Thank you very much Pankaj, for the Types and Protologue. Yes it is a rare
species. Gamble collected in 1880s from Nilgiris. Later it was reported from
AP & KL. My collection was perhaps second from TN state. We got it
identified by Dr.T.A. Cope, the grass expert at Kew. Its a very good, unique
species.
(i dont know why Bor honoured Fischer while naming this species instead of
the collector - Gamble!?)

Regards
