Abstract

Stenotaphrum Trin is a tropical genus with 2 or 3 species. S. dimidiatum Brogn (Fig. 1) is reported to be distributed in the tropical plains of India (Hooker, 1897; Fischer, 1956). Among the other species S secundatum (St. Augustine grass), a native to West Indies, Guinea, South Africa and the Pacific areas from Mexico to Australia is extensively cultivated in the Southern States of U.S.A. in lawns and on fairways of golf courses (Hoover, Hein, Dayton and Erlanson, 1948). A leaf-variegated form of this species is a well known garden plant.
