What is this strange alias syntax?

Taken from the docs:
alias int func(int);
void main()
{
if ( is(func[]) ) // not satisfied because arrays of
writeln("satisfied"); // functions are not allowed
else
writeln("not satisfied");
}
It will print not satisfied. But I'm not sure what func is supposed to be? An alias.. to what? I can't declare variables of its type:
func x;
error: variable test.main.x cannot be declared to be a function
Of course if you write the alias the usual way it will print 'satisfied'. Nothing strange about having an array of functions in D:
alias int function(int) func;
void main()
{
if ( is(func[]) )
writeln("satisfied");
else
writeln("not satisfied");
}
