The identity of Calamagrostis emodensis var. breviseta (Poaceae, Agrostidinae)

Calamagrostis macrolepis Central and South Asia new synonym Tajikistan taxonomy

Abstract

This paper presents a re-evaluation of the taxonomic and morphological relationships of Calamagrostis emodensis var. breviseta. Examination of morphological characters has shown that Calamagrostis emodensis var. breviseta was incorrectly linked with C. emodensis at the time of description, and indicates that it is conspecific with C. macrolepis. It is here reduced to a synonym of the latter species.
