The present study assesses the taxonomic identity of the two recently described Indian species of Capillipedium i.e. C. mistryi and C. yashwantraoi from the state of Madhya Pradesh, central India. Both of the species share important features, such as multispiculated racemes, solid pedicel and rhachis internode (non-translucent). As these features are unique in Capillipedium they are of peculiar interest. Having multi-spiculated spiciform racemes, these taxa can be best compared with a similar, non-Indian congener, C. spicigerum which is distributed from China to Australia. Based on comparative morphological study using their protologues and the type specimens, it is concluded that C. yashwantraoi is conspecific with C. mistryi. Therefore, the former is treated as a new heterotypic synonym under the latter following the principle of priority.

During the taxonomic study of the genus Bothriochloa from India, B. ewartiana was reported for the first time in Asia from India. Earlier, it was known only from Australia, Lesser Sunda Island (Sumbawa, Timor), Philippines (Luzon), and Papua New Guinea (Madang). We have discussed about its amphitropical disjunct distribution over a vast continental gap with respect to some variability reported in the morphological attributes. A hypothesis behind its seclusion from Far East is also discussed. The images of the habitat and habit of B. ewartiana along with its detailed comparison with a close species B. woodrovii are provided. The taxonomic limits of each Indian species of Bothriochloa along with their ranges of morphological variations and distribution have been discussed in a detail. The Indian endemic B. parameswaranii (synonym nova) has been relegated, based on the morphological study, as a new taxonomic synonym of B. insculpta. Moreover, keys to identify closely allied genera and the species of Bothriochloa in India are provided. At the end, identification, taxonomic notes and the range of variations of Dichanthium foulkesii, D. jainii & D. concanense have been discussed in a detail.

Ischaemum mistryi (Poaceae: Andropogoneae): A new remarkable species from Sub-Tropical Evergreen Forest, India2021 •
Ischaemum mistryi, a new species from the SubTropical evergreen forest of Tilari Ghat, Maharashtra, India, is described and illustrated. This grass is unique with its leaves drooping, mostly congregated near the base, basal sheath villous, culms compressed at the base, lower glume of the sessile spikelet linear-lanceolate to oblongish tapering and slightly curled upwards, without a sub-apical ridge, nodules absent (if present 2-4 obscure) on its keels, and upper lemma of sessile spikelet bi-partite. Morphologically it is somewhat similar to I. mangaluricum, I. travancorense and I. barbatum. We provided a table of its detailed comparison with close species as mentioned above. According to IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria, we have assessed this new species as Critically Endangered (CR). The photo plates and illustration of the grass are given to facilitate its proper identification. A short discussion is also provided at the end.

Systematic implications of foliar epidermis in andropogoneae (poaceae) from Hindukush-himalayas Pakistan2024 •
In our examination of Ischaemum specimens from the BSI herbarium, originating from Karnataka, previously misidentified as Ischaemum semisagittatum, I. dalzellii, I. lanatum, and I. molle, we affirm that these specimens correspond to I. elimalayanum. This species, previously thought to be endemic to Kerala, aligns with the protologue and type specimens examined at CAL, K & MH herbaria. Accurate identification is facilitated by provided images based on specimens housed at BSI. Morphological investigations led to the inclusion of I. kumarakodiensis and I. abrahamii, closely related Kerala species, as new heterotypic synonyms of I. elimalayanum, substantiated by detailed comparative morphological analysis (Table 1) and taxonomic discussion. A key to aid identification of closely allied species in India is presented. The distribution map of I. elimalayanum is updated based on literature and herbarium specimens. Our study rectifies previous misidentifications, contributing to the taxonomy and distribution understanding of Ischaemum species in India. In addition, brief taxonomic notes on I. barbatum, I. pappinisseriensis and I. amboliense are given.

The present paper focuses on lectotypification of the name Andropogon hackelii Hooker (1896: 194), basionym of Chrysopogon hackelii (Hook. f.) C.E.C. Fischer (1935: 1739), a species endemic to India and its similarities with two allied congeners from India.

Phylogeny of New World Stipeae (Poaceae): an evaluation of the monophyly of Aciachne and Amelichloa2010 •
© The Willi Hennig Society 2010.© The Willi Hennig Society 2010.AbstractThe tribe Stipeae, with nearly 550 species, includes 28 core genera, of which 13 occur in America: Achnatherum, Aciachne, Amelichloa, Anatherostipa, Hesperostipa, Jarava, Nassella, Ortachne, Oryzopsis, Pappostipa, Piptatherum, Piptochaetium and Ptilagrostis. Based on 37 species representing 14 Stipeae genera, and using four chloroplast markers and morphological characters, we provide a phylogenetic hypothesis of the New World Stipeae, with our focus on Amelichloa and Aciachne. Parsimony analyses included two approaches: (i) a multiple-sequence alignment where gaps were treated as missing or coded, (ii) using direct sequences by direct optimization as implemented by the program POY v.4.0.2870. Analyses under direct optimization were conducted using the molecular data sets independently and combined, and with morphological data. Different cost regimes were explored and the one producing the highest congruence between partitions was chosen. Among the genera considered, only Piptochaetium, Austrostipa, and Hesperostipa were resolved as monophyletic, while Achnatherum, Amelichloa s.l., Anatherostipa, Jarava and Nassella were polyphyletic, and Aciachne was polyphyletic or paraphyletic. As a result, Amelichloa can be restricted to a monophyletic group if including A. brachychaeta, A. ambigua, A. clandestina and A. caudata, or it should be considered within Nassella. The phylogenetic position of species of Aciachne suggests inbreeding and outbreeding events with species of Anatherostipa, Ortachne and Hesperostipa.The tribe Stipeae, with nearly 550 species, includes 28 core genera, of which 13 occur in America: Achnatherum, Aciachne, Amelichloa, Anatherostipa, Hesperostipa, Jarava, Nassella, Ortachne, Oryzopsis, Pappostipa, Piptatherum, Piptochaetium and Ptilagrostis.

The genus Ischaemum Linnaeus (1753: 1049) was established with two species, viz. I. muticum Linnaeus (1753: 1049) and I. aristatum Linnaeus (1753: 1049). At present, the genus comprises ca. 71 species distributed in warm and tropical regions of the world (Mabberley 2008). It is represented by 56 species in India of which 43 species are endemic (Srivastava & Nair, 2010). In recent years, the genus has attracted the attention of many researchers for novelties in taxonomy (Gorade et al. 2016, Sunil et al. 2017), distribution (Datar et al. 2014) and nomenclature (Tiwari et al. 2016).
