Taxonomic revision and distributional analysis of the Tribe Stipeae Dumort. (Pooideae, Poaceae) in Peru
Project summary:
As part of my master’s thesis, this project aims to update knowledge of the tribe Stipeae in Peru through a taxonomic revision of type specimens and collections at US, HUT, and CPUN, complementing prior studies. It will delimit diagnostic characters and analyze distributional patterns, offering new perspectives on Andean biogeography.
