Enjoyed doing this quiz and I learnt too.
What is the logic behind these botanical names is not understood atleast not by me. Nothing surprising as English language has no logic either and botanists have taken advantage of this and perhaps just went about naming these cereals without any logic either No one has questioned them and so they are solid as rock. My heart goes out to those students who are learning botany and they have to mug these names for their exams.
Let me test your knowledge. Good Luck
These are the other quizzes that I have prepared in the times I have been here:

I wouldn’t have a clue what these names are but great photo and quiz..
You are not the only one most here have found this quiz difficult to solve.
The quiz is great but I mostly guessed. I have learned something new. I have three correct answers
Many found it difficult and I agree.
Wow, this is tough, only got 3 out of eight! 😛
Even getting 3 is great. I know this is a tough quiz. I will be more careful next time.
To be frank, I don’t know anything about scientific names.
This quiz has put off many I notice unlike my other quizzes.
Definitely I am not botanical but an interesting quiz just the same.
Of my 26 quizzes this seems did not go well with users. I understand. No more technical terms (lol)
Even I try quizzes and I do well with guesses (lol)
My score was 2/8 but I was guessing all the questions. Didn’t know any of these names.
Most quizzes help us learn. I too learnt while preparing this quiz.
No idea on any of these!
Atleast you tried Carol.
You got 2 out of 8 right!
Could be better
Oops
Seems a difficult quiz. Thanks for trying.
I played this quiz on lucky, dear Grace … they are really weird translations … I have 3 correct ones
I have realised that this has been a difficult quiz I will make a note of it for my future quizzes
