[31] In some areas certain Setaria spp. have been called foxtail, but to avoid confusion, that common name should be reserved to the genus Alopecurus.
[32] These three species are sometimes called foxtail.
[33] Listed as S. glauca (L.) Beauv. in Gray’s Manual, 8th Ed. p. 226, and on p. 235, Vol. I, of the New Britton & Brown, 1952.
[34] Listed as Sorgum Adans. in Gray’s Manual, 8th Ed. p. 234, and on p. 244 in Vol. I of the New Britton & Brown, 1952.

[36] Listed on p. 530 of Hitchcock’s 1951 manual as T. crinita (Lag.) Parodi.
[37] Z. pungens Willd. in some manuals.
