Abstract

Three Elymus (Poaceae) species: E. ciliaris, E. formosanus and E. tsukushiensis were confirmed and illustrated in this article. A distribution map of these three Elymus species was offered, too. In Taiwan, E. tsukushiensis were misapplied as E. ×mayebaranus (=Agropyron × mayebaranum), which is a rare sterile hybrid endemic to Japan. The information of two related species: E. ×mayebaranus and E. shandongensis were also described.
