Name

Stipeae Martinov Tekhno-Bot. Slovar. 601. (1820)

Typus: Stipa L. Sp. Pl. 1: 78. (1753)

Note: Sensu Soreng et al. (2017 & 2000) & Peterson et al. (2019). Some agrostologists still prefer a broad concept of the genus Stipa L., however, recent molecular phylogenetic studies suggest that ca. 34 genera should be recognised within the tribe. This circumscription reflects that later view.

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]

Achnatherum (syn. Aristella)
Aciachne
Amelichloa
Anatherostipa (syn. Nicoraella)
Anemanthele
Austrostipa
Celtica
Eriocoma
Hesperostipa
Jarava
Lorenzochloa
Macrochloa
Nassella
Oloptum
Ortachne
Orthoraphium
Oryzopsis
Pappostipa
Patis
Piptatheropsis
Piptatherum
Piptochaetium
Psammochloa
Ptilagrostis
Stipa
Stipellula (syn. Stipella)
Timouria
Trikerala

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]
