ABSTRACT
A taxonomic revision of the genus Germainia (Andropogoneae, Poaceae) in Thailand is presented based on herbarium and field studies, including evidence from morphology, habitats and geographical distribution. Six of the nine recognized Germainia species are found in Thailand. We include a key to the taxa that are currently known from Thailand or may be expected, lists of species synonymies, species descriptions and lists of representative specimens.
Keywords: Germainia, Andropogoneae, Poaceae, Thailand
