Taxonomy
The genus is named after the Prussian botanist Friedrich Adam Julius von Wangenheim (1749–1800).[2][6] The Latin specific epithet of lima refers to the Latin noun of file, often referring to a rough surface.[7] Wangenheimia was first described and published in Methodus on page 200 in 1794.[1] The species was first published in Fund. Agrost. on page 132 in 1820.[8]
The genus is not recognized by the United States Department of Agriculture and the Agricultural Research Service, listing it as a synonym of Festuca L. and they do not list any known species.[9]

It is native to Spain and Portugal (in Europe) and Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia (in North Africa).[1][10][11]
It is found in grasslands,[12] at altitudes of 500 metres (1,600 ft) above sea level.[13]
Cultivation
It has been cultivated under the name Wangenheimia 'Lima Vulcan',[5] Wangenheimia lima 'Vulcan',[14] or Wangenheimia lima ‘Vulcan’ and “Vulcan Grass”.[15]
