Forwarding pl. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Simon Bryan <bryan.si...@derm.qld.gov.au> Date: 10 December 2010 08:43 Subject: Checklist of World Grasses
A check-list of currently accepted species of grasses of the world can be found at the GrassWorld Scratchpad http://grassworld.myspecies.info/content/check-list-world-grasses The first list includes authors, place of publication and TDWG Level 1 distributions (Europe, Africa, Temperate Asia, Tropical Asia, Australasia, Pacific, North America, South America, Antarctic.) and classification, where subfamilies, tribes and genera follow GPWG and subsequent grass taxonomic literature. Lists of each Continental Region follow, with TDWG Level 3 distributions indicated. Distributional information has been gleaned from the agrostological literature, the Kew SYNON access database and TROPICOS. Feedback from users would be much appreciated in cases where information is noted to be incorrect or where different distributional information from that given in this check-list is known. Exchange of such information can be placed in the Forums section of the GrassWorld Scratchpad. It is possible to provide a list of grasses to interested parties of any country of the world or region of larger countries (Russia, China, India, USA, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Australia, South Africa) where this information is available.
