A TAXONOMIC REVISION OF THE GENUS VULPIA C. C. GMEL. (POACEAE, POEAE) IN IRAN

As a result of a taxonomic review of the Iranian materials of the genus Vulpia and the relevant literature this genus was recognized as possessing five species and four subspecies occurring in Iran. The novelties of this study for the flora of Iran are: describing one new taxon: V. unilateralis subsp. tomentosa; reporting one new record for the flora of Iran: V. ciliata subsp. plumosa; and literature correction of V. ciliata Dumort. and accepting the correct Name “Vulpia unilateralis (L.) Stace” for “Nrdurus maritimus (L.) Murb.” for the floar of Iran.
