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 32 genera: [1] [4] [5]

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, [6] [7] [8] but a complete analysis has not yet been performed. Stipoid grasses use the C3 photosynthetic pathway and live in temperate areas worldwide. [9]

Known fossils date from the late Miocene. [10]
