Abstract

Present study is on our own critical observations on fresh plant material collected from the different parts. The observations are also based on herbarium specimens. Relevant data from literature have been referred for comparative study and conclusion including recent nomenclature. The study of Bulbostylis Kunth provides a detailed taxonomic description, illustration and relevant information for its easy identification in the field. Three species are collected and are described. The present report is hoped to provide basic material for further research in Cyperaceae.

Highlights

  • The genus Bulbostylis is often confused with Fimbristylis Vahl s.l

  • Most species are recognized by the long white cilia-like hairs near orifice of sheaths and the style base which is somewhat dilated often persistent on the mature nuts. (There are few species lacking this character) The species of present paper have both these features

  • These two features are not found to occur in any of the species of Fimbristylis s.l. and species of Bulbostylis can be recognized by the presence of any of the two features
