Boesenberg

Boesenberg is a genus of grasses in the family Poaceae. The genus was described by German botanist Ernst Haeckel in 1886. Species within Boesenberg are typically found in tropical and subtropical regions. They are perennial grasses, often growing in clumps. The inflorescence is usually a panicle, bearing numerous small spikelets. The glumes are typically awnless. Boesenberg grasses are not of significant economic importance, though they may play a role in local ecosystems as forage for herbivores or for soil stabilization. Specific distribution and habitat details can vary greatly depending on the individual species within the genus. Further research is often needed to fully understand the ecological roles and distribution of each Boesenberg species.
