Notes:
Recent developments in DNA sequencing, so-called next-generation sequencing (NGS) methods, can help the study of rare lineages that are known from museum specimens. The taxonomy and evolution of the Malagasy grass lineage Chasechloa was investigated with the aid of NGS. Chasechloa comprises two species, one of them collected only once in 1851. The genus is restricted to north-western seasonally dry deciduous forests. (C. Silva et al. 2017)
