Additional species (Festulolium, black medick, meadow grasses) #93

Definitely add Festulolium - it will be a slightly different format from the other species and needs to include the Italian ryegrass and perennial ryegrass variants

Ask experts about yellow trefoil/black medick - its annual/biennial but behaves like perennial as self-seeds readily. But how often is it really included in MSS?

The meadow-grasses (annual, rough and smooth) very common in grassland seed banks. Also common bent, Yorkshire fog, red fescue. Will assist grass ID to include these. One issue is the regional variation in species. Could signpost to a good beginners grass ID guide instead https://www.field-studies-council.org/shop/publications/grasses-guide/ http://www.brerc.eclipse.co.uk/files/brerc_grass_key.pdf https://www.gatekeeperel.co.uk/guide-grasses.html
