%X Cyperochloa (type species: C. hirsuta Lazarides &amp;    L. Watson), a new monotypic grass genus from Western Australia, is described and illus-    trated. It is sedge-like in appearance, with filiform basal leaves and a terminal, solitary,    bracteate spike subtended by a spathaceous leaf sheath. Detailed comparisons of its mor-    phology and anatomy with 728 generic descriptions in an automated database place it in    the Arundinoideae, where it occupies a rather isolated position among the relatives of    Danthonia.
