''Desmostachya'' is a genus of grass in the Poaceae family. ==Taxonomy== The genus ''Desmostachya'' was originally published as ''Eragrostis'' sect. ''Desmostachya'' in ''The Flora of British India'' 7: 324. 1897. Somehow two prominent botanists, Joseph Dalton Hooker (1817–1911) and Otto Stapf (1857–1933), were originally each credited separately as the naming authority for the taxon (the type specimen for this section of ''Eragrostis'' being ''Eragrostis cynosuroides'' (Retz.) P.Beauv., itself based on a previous species taxon, ''Poa cynosuroides'' Retz.). It is generally accepted that ''Eragrostis'' sect. ''Desmostachya'' Hook.f. is the correct name for the taxon. However, ''E.'' sect. ''Desmostachya'' Stapf is accepted as the basionym for the genus name ''Desmostachya''. A year after it was published as a section of ''Eragrostis'', ''Desmostachya'' was published as a genus in its own right in ''Flora Capensis'' 7: 316. 1898.〔 Two species are recognized: * ''Desmostachya bipinnata'' (L.) Stapf (commonly known variously as, Kusha grass, Kusa grass, or Darbha Grass ) * ''Desmostachya cynosuroides'' Stapf ''ex'' Massey : List source : 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Desmostachya」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
