The genus Nassella (Poaceae: Stipeae) in Mexico

Nassella Desvaux is a genus of the grass tribe Stipeae. It was originally described for Central and South American species, and generally was interpreted as consisting of plants with short florets, blunt calluses, non-striate lemmas with overlapping margins and readily deciduous awns. Pohl (1980), B...

description Nassella Desvaux is a genus of the grass tribe Stipeae. It was originally described for Central and South American species, and generally was interpreted as consisting of plants with short florets, blunt calluses, non-striate lemmas with overlapping margins and readily deciduous awns. Pohl (1980), Barkworth and Everett (1987) and Barkworth (1990) adopted a much broader interpretation of Nassella, one that would include many species traditionally placed in Stipa. Under this interpretation in Mexico exist eight species of Nassella, which are widely distributed in the country. In this paper the evidence supporting this expansion of Nassella is reviewed. Keys to genera and species are presented as well as a distribution map for its Mexican members.

Nassella Desvaux es un género de la tribu Stipeae, descrito originalmente para especies de América Central y Sudamérica, que consiste de plantas con flósculos obovados, gibosos, con callo obtuso, lema no estriada con márgenes superpuestos y aristas fácilmente deciduas. Pohl (1980), Barkworth y Everett (1987) y Barkworth (1990) definieron un concepto más amplio de Nassella, incluyendo muchas especies tradicionalmente colocadas en Stipa. Bajo tal interpretación, en México existen ocho especies de Nassella, las cuales se distribuyen ampliamente en el país. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo comentar las evidencias que existen para apoyar la expansión de Nassella. Se presentan claves para géneros y especies, y un mapa de distribución de las especies conocidas de México.
