The Stipeae are a tribe of grasses within the subfamily Pooidae, with up to 600 described species.[2]

Description

[edit]

The defining morphological features of the Stipeae include single-flowered spikelets lacking a rachilla extension, and the lemmas (the external bract) have either a sharp point or a terminal awn (long bristle).[3]

Genera

[edit]

The tribe includes 32 genera:[1][4][5]

Many species initially placed into Stipa have now been split off into new genera. Some recent papers have analysed relationships within and between the genera,[6][7][8] but a complete analysis has not yet been performed. Stipoid grasses use the C3 photosynthetic pathway and live in temperate areas worldwide.[9]

Known fossils date from the late Miocene.[10]
