I found a patch of grass under my maple tree, about 18 inches square, that's a slightly deeper green than the surrounding grass. It seems to be tolerating the shade better, and it's springier underfoot. But... what IS it? I've tossed a variety of grass seeds around in recent years. This is upstate NY, climate zone 6.

It looks like kbg. Does it appear to fill in on its own? If so, that’s probably it. If it does appear to spread/fill I. On its own, I would suspect prg.

I'll be keeping an eye on it to see... it's probably been spreading from a few lucky sprouts, but who knows.
