Synonyms[1]
  • supertribe Stipodae L. Liu (1980)
  • subtribe Stipinae Griseb. (1846)
  • Aciachninae Caro (1982)
  • Ortachninae Caro (1982)

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

Description

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

The tribe includes 28 genera:[1]

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,[4][5][6] but a complete analysis has not yet been performed. Stipoid grasses use the C3 photosynthetic pathway and live in temperate areas worldwide.[7]

Known fossils date from the late Miocene.[8]
