Bouteloua breviseta
Bouteloua breviseta is a species of grass known by the common names gypsum grama and chino grama.
It is native to the Chihuahuan Desert, in New Mexico and Texas in the United States and Chihuahua on the northern Mexican Plateau in Mexico.
This grass is used for grazing and it may be added to a hay mix. It does not stand up to overgrazing, but it is adaptable to poor conditions and it can take hold where other grasses cannot grow.
