content: Specimen annotated (unsigned, undated) "Type of Muhlenbergia wrightii Vasey" and recorded in Tropicos and US catalog records as "holotype" (as of Feb. 2014). Protologue cites no collections, only "Colorado and New Mexico" and thus there are (at least) 2 syntypes. This Wright collection originally labeled "N. Mexico" was probably collected in what is now Arizona; duplicates at GH provide further information: 14 Sep 1851; Arizona: Cochise County, Valley of Sonora, along branches, east of Huachuca Mountain south of Benson (R. Soreng, email comm. Feb. 2014).
