Flowers; lodicules 0.5 mm long, narrowly lanceolate, unlobed; anthers 0.5?.1 mm long, those of the upper flower vestigial or sometimes poorly formed but not much reduced. Caryopses 1.3 mm long, elliptical in side-view, laterally compressed, slightly sulcate, hilum oval about 0.2 mm long, grain adherent to the palea. 2n = unknown. Distribution. The species occurs in Bolivia and Peru, and in Mexico it is known from the states of Mexico, Puebla, San Luis Potos? PD98059 chemical information Tlaxcala, and Veracruz. Ecology.

First reported from Mexico by Fournier (1886) as Dissanthelium sclerochloides, Beetle (1987) accepted D. mathewsii Ball as the correct name. Soreng (1998) and Refulio-Rodr uez et al. (2012) concluded there were too many intermediates between this and the smaller and shorter spikeleted D. calycina (J. Presl) Kunth, and therefore, treated the taxon as a subspecies or variety. Poa calycina var. calycina and var. mathewsii are known from Bolivia and Peru. Historically, the species was treated within Dissanthelium. However, DNA analyses have confirmed that all elements of that genus belong within Poa (Refulio-Rodr uez et al. 2012). All but one species formerly placed in Dissanthelium differ from other Poa by having spikelets with two florets, lemmas 3-nerved (rare in Poa), and glumes that are longer than at least the lowest lemma (a feature that occurs infrequently in other groups of Poa). Poa calycina belongs to P. sect. Dissanthelium (Trin.) Refulio (see also Poa thomasii below).Robert J. Soreng Paul M. Peterson / PhytoKeys 15: 1?04 (2012)6. Poa chamaeclinos Pilg., Bot. Jahrb.
