Abstract

The grasses comprise one of the world's largest families of flowering plants, with about 670 groups or genera containing over 9000 individual types or species distributed throughout the world. Over 130 groups have been recorded in Western Australia but probable that the list is far from complete. About one third of these have been introduced from overseas.
