Image:Glyceria fluitans x notata = G. x pedicellata herbarium specimen from Abbots Leigh, VC6 North Somerset in 1889 by Mr James Walter White.
notes:A grass that has been named pedicellata, and that possesses the cheif charaters said to mark the variety. But trifling deviations from the type fluitans, shading impereceptibly one into the other,are so frequent that I find much difficulty in laying hold of any salient points of discussion. It seems to come out clearly, however, that we should follow Syme in concluding that pedicellata would be more fittingly be placed under eu-fluitans than under plicata where it now stands - J. W. White
