Field Guide to the Grasses of Madagascar is the first photographic compilation of information on Madagascar’s Poaceae, featuring around half of the known grass species on the island. Compiled by a team of Malagasy and international botanists led by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Kew Madagascar, and partner institutions, it consolidates expert-generated and expert-verified information in Malagasy and English.

This book contains information on 269 species of grasses, with a general introduction and an index to Malagasy common names in addition to Latin names. The book also provides a critical foundation to the ongoing work of assessing the current biodiversity, distribution, uses, and evolution of the island’s grass flora.
