RUGOLO DE AGRASAR, Zulma E.. The species of the genus Deyeuxia (Poaceae, Pooideae) from Argentina and nomenclatural notes. Darwiniana [online]. 2006, vol.44, n.1, pp.131-293. ISSN 0011-6793.

This first revision of the genus Deyeuxia in Argentina revealed 58 native taxa from America, three of them endemic to Argentina, and the remaining ones also growing in Bolivia, Brasil and Chile. Three new taxa are described for science: Deyeuxia alba subsp. breviaristata (Argentina, Brasil and Uruguay); Deyeuxia heterophylla var. puberilemma (Perú); Deyeuxia trichodonta var. hirsuta from (Argentina: Salta). The following taxa are new records for Argentina, Bolivia, Chile and Ecuador: Deyeuxia brevifolia var. brevifolia and Deyeuxia brevifolia var. expansa (Chile); Deyeuxia cabrerae var. cabrerae, D. cabrerae var. aristulata (Chile); D. cabrerae var. trichopoda (Chile); Deyeuxia curta (Ecuador); D. diemii (Chile); Deyeuxia filifolia (Chile); Deyeuxia hackelii (Chile); Deyeuxia minima (Argentina and Ecuador); Deyeuxia sclerantha (Ecuador); Deyeuxia spicigera var. spicigera Chile); Deyeuxia spicigera var. cephalotes (Argentina) and Deyeuxia trichodonta var. trichodonta (Bolivia). The new name Deyeuxia nana, for Agrostis caespitosa, and the following new combinations are established: Deyeuxia reitzii, Deyeuxia rupestris f. pilosa, Deyeuxia rupestris var. minor, D. tarmensis var. macrochaeta, and Deyeuxia velutina var. nardifolia. New synonyms are established for Deyeuxia heterophylla (Calamagrostis mulleri, Calamagrostis macbridei); Deyeuxia rupestris f. pilosa (Calamagrostis leonardii, Calamagrostis longearistata f. pilosa) and Calamagrostis epigeios (Calamagrostis chilensis). This revision includes a critical evaluation of morphological characters (some of them studied by SEM) with taxonomic value at the generic and species level, and relationships among Deyeuxia and its closest genera are discussed. Nomenclatural considerations about problematic taxa, keys to Deyeuxia and related genera, and also to the species and subspecific taxa, descriptions, synonyms, illustrations, geographical distribution, ecological observations and vernacular names for every species are presented in detail.
