Note: The fiber of the grass species Macrochloa tenacissima, used to make cordage, shoes, and paper. It is sometimes used in combination with the poorer quality with fiber from another species of tall grass, Lygeum spartum. Esparto fibers are used extensively in England and Scotland for the production of paper, but rarely used in the U.S. because wood pulp is plentiful there.
Chinese (traditional) ..... 草本植物細莖針茅的纖維,用於製作繩索、鞋子與紙張,有時會與取自另一個高大草本物種疏散利堅草、品質較差的纖維混合使用;在英格蘭與蘇格蘭地區廣泛用於紙張的製造,但在美國極少用到,因為美國的木質紙漿非常充足。
