Reed is a common name for several tall, grass-like plants of wetlands.
Briza is a genus of annual and perennial plants in the grass family, native to northern temperate regions of Eurasia, North Africa, and certain islands in the Atlantic.
A reedbed or reed bed is a natural habitat found in floodplains, waterlogged depressions and estuaries. Reedbeds are part of a succession from young reeds colonising open water or wet ground through a gradation of increasingly dry ground. As reedbeds age, they build up a considerable litter layer that eventually rises above the water level and that ultimately provides opportunities in the form of new areas for larger terrestrial plants such as shrubs and trees to colonise.
Molinia, or moor grass, is a genus of two species of flowering plants in the grass family, native to damp moorland in Eurasia and northern Africa. They are both herbaceous perennial grasses.
Phalaris aquatica, known by the common names bulbous canary-grass and Harding grass, is a species of grass in the genus Phalaris of the family Poaceae.
Glyceria is a widespread genus of grass family common across Eurasia, Australia, North Africa, and the Americas.
Glyceria leptostachya is a species of mannagrass known by the common names davy mannagrass and narrow mannagrass.
Glyceria fluitans, known as floating sweet-grass and water mannagrass, is a species of perennial grass in the genus Glyceria native to Europe, the Mediterranean region and Western Asia and occurring in wet areas such as ditches, riverbanks and ponds.
Apamea ophiogramma, the double lobed, is a moth of the family Noctuidae. It is found in the Palearctic realm in North and Central Europe to the Urals, Turkestan, Russian Far East, and Siberia. There have been at least two separate introductions into North America and it is now rapidly expanding in range. This species is sometimes placed in the monotypic genus Lateroligia.
Catabrosa is a small but widespread genus of plants in the grass family native to temperate areas of Eurasia, the Americas, and a few places in Africa.
Glyceria notata, the plicate sweet-grass or marked glyceria, is an invasive specie part of the rhizomatous family. tufted, perennial grasses in the mannagrass genus, found in all continents of the world. Its culms are 30–80 cm in height, ascending from a prostrate base, with dark- to bluish-green, flat or folded leaf-blades some 5–30 cm long by 3–14 mm wide.
The Meliceae are a tribe of grasses near the base of the Pooideae. They include two relatively large genera, Melica with about 80-90 species and Glyceria with about 55 species. Its other genera are Koordersiochloa, Lycochloa, Pleuropogon, Schizachne, and Triniochloa.
Elachista poae is a moth of the family Elachistidae found in Europe.
Glyceria canadensis is a species of grass in the genus Glyceria which is known by the common name rattlesnake mannagrass. It is native to North America, from British Columbia to Newfoundland and south to North Carolina. It is commonly found in wet areas.
Glyceria acutiflora, the creeping mannagrass, is a perennial grass found in the north-eastern United States and in north-eastern Asia. Its specific epithet acutiflora means "acute-flowered". It has a diploid number of 40.
