Published Grass Illustrations and Images

B.K.Simon, Y. Alfonso & D.V. Healy. June 2014

This is the second list of published illustrations (the first was in GrassWorld Scratchpads 1, 2010) and images extracted from the GrassWorld database.  It comprises most of the figures from the grass literature that I have been able to access, but does not include earlier illustrations listed in Index Londinensis.   

Names follow the classification recently placed on GrassWorld and where users are familiar with different names these can  be cross-referenced using TROPICOS online or the Kew synonymy access database downloadable from GrassBase http://www.kew.org/data/grasses-syn/

Of the 12282 species on the GrassWorld database, there are 5079 that are recorded as having no illustration by the comment Illustrations: None found.  No doubt many of these species may be illustrated in botanical literature I have not been able to access.  I would be very interested to be informed about any of these.
