Agropyropsis Explained

Agropyropsis is a monotypic genus of grasses closely related to Catapodium.[1] It is native to the Batna Province in northeastern Algeria,[2] [3] and only contains a single species, Agropyropsis lolium.[4] [5] [6] It once included a second species, Agropyropsis gracilis, which has since been renamed and moved to Lolium canariense.[4]
