A dark green, glabrous perennial with erect or geniculate culms and long, vigorous, creeping rootstocks forming a thick sod; widely distributed on moderately moist soils; a common grass of pastures, meadows, fields and roadsides.
A. alba is distinguished from Phleum pratense by the glabrous margins of collar, the absence of a notch at either side of ligule and by the prominently ridged upper surface of blade.

 Distribution and behaviour of glabrous cutaneous receptors in the human foot sole -- Kennedy and Inglis 538 (3): 995 -- ...
To document the activity of cutaneous mechanoreceptors in the glabrous skin of the foot sole, tungsten microelectrodes were inserted through the popliteal fossa and into the tibial nerve of thirteen healthy human subjects.
In comparison with the cutaneous receptors in the glabrous skin of the foot sole, the tactile afferents innervating the lateral border of the foot and calf had lower force thresholds and smaller receptive fields (Trulsson, 2001).
However, the differences between skin receptors in the glabrous skin of the foot and the hairy skin of the leg are not surprising.

This species is apparently most closely allied to M. garrettii and M. grandis.  It differs from the former by the obovate leaves, glabrous leaves and petioles, and bigger flowers, and from the latter by the pubescent stipules and peduncles, as well as by its smaller fruits.
Buds glabrous, abaxial surface white villose; leaves cuneate at base; matured follicles with a 3—4 mm beak      9.

It appears that the snow-white pappus cannot be used as a diagnostic character of G. crocea this corresponding to the conclusion in sect.
Still most specimens are easily recognized by this trait and also by the either glabrous or thinly tomentose subsurfaced leaves; in the latter case the leaf margin is more irregularly sinuate than in the other species.
