Scrivanti, L. R. & A. M. Anton (2011). New combination in Bothriochloa Kuntze (Poaceae). Candollea 66: 155–158. In Spanish, English and French abstracts.

Bothriochloa laguroides var. torreyana (Steud.) M. Marchi & Longhi-Wagner (Poaceae: Andropogoneae), a taxon from South America, differs from the typical variety by several morphological characters and by differences in chemical composition. A new combination at specific rank is thus proposed for that species, Bothriochloa torreyana (Steud.) Scrivanti & Anton.
