Abstract
A critical taxonomic revision of thirteen species and two varieties for the genus Stipagrostis Nees in Egypt is presented. The study was carried out on herbarium specimens and fresh material collected from different localities. Types, synonyms, short descriptions, key for identifying the investigated taxa based on morphological characters, and notes on habitat, local and global distribution, phenology, and conservation status are provided. In addition, the most taxonomic notes for each taxon are discussed. The results revealed the presence of two previously omitted taxa of Stipagrostis plumosa subsp. seminuda and S. plumosa var. brachypoda.
