taxonomic synonym: Andropogon nardus L. legitimate

• Comment: Mueller lists "Andropogon Schoenanthus = A. nardusbrevifolis ...". Since Andropogon schoenanthus L. was previously accepted by Mueller on p. 132 of the Systematic Census (1882) and also in Mueller's Second Systematic Census p. 222, A. schoenanthus L. is here treated as being an accepted name in this Supplement with A. nardus L. in synonymy.
