''Imperata'' is a small but widespread genus of tropical and subtropical grasses, commonly known as satintails.〔Cirillo, Domenico Maria Leone 1792. Plantarum Rariorum Regni Neapolitani 2: 26〕〔Clayton, W.D., Harman, K.T. & Williamson, H. (2006). World Grass Species - Synonymy database. The Board of Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. 〕 Satintail grass species are perennial rhizomatous herbs with solid, erect stems and silky inflorescences. The best known species is ''Imperata cylindrica'', which is recognized as a devastating noxious weed in many places and cultivated as an ornamental plant in others.〔(Flora of China Vol. 22 Page 583 白茅属 bai mao shu ''Imperata'' Cirillo, Pl.
