Many species initially placed into Stipa have now been split off into new genera. Some recent papers have analysed relationships within and between the genera,[6][7][8] but a complete analysis has not yet been performed. Stipoid grasses use the C3 photosynthetic pathway and live in temperate areas worldwide.[9]
