Notes.
Eremopoa bellula was applied by several authors to small densely tufted alpine annual plants of south-central and southwest Asia, which we recognise as P. diaphora var. alpina (based on Poa persica var. alpina Boissier [1884]). Tzvelev (1976, pg. 480) noted that the holotype collection of E. bellula appeared to be a mix of altaica ( diaphora ) and songarica forms ("p.p. max" = E. altaica subsp. songarica , somewhat intermediate between this subsp. and subsp. altaica , and "p.p. minor" = E. altaica subsp. altaica ); he considered E. bellula to be a synonym of E. altaica subsp. songarica. Further study is needed to clarifiy the placement of Eremopoa bellula and determine if it is synonymous with P. diaphora var. alpina .
