Agrostis castellana, the highland bent, dryland bent or dryland browntop, is a species of cool-season grass in the family Poaceae.[2][3][4] It is native to Macaronesia and the Mediterranean, has been widely introduced elsewhere, and is considered an invasive species in some locales.[1][5] It is a hyperaccumulator of zinc and lead.[6][7]
