Abstract

Albrecht and McLay (2022) recently described a new species Brachyachne anisocarpa Albr. (Poaceae) from Western Australia and the Northern Territory, Australia. The authors make a case for including the species in Brachyachne (Benth.) Stapf even though that genus had been incorporated into Cynodon Rich. by Peterson et al. (2015). Part of the Albrecht and McLay (2022) case was that the inclusion of Brachyachne into Cynodon had not received universal acceptance within Australia. Currently this remains the case, as Brachyachne is still maintained as distinct in Queensland (Thompson et al. 2022; Council of Heads of Australasian Herbaria 2006-). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
