Abstract
A taxonomic treatment of Bouteloua for northeastern México (Coahuila, Nuevo León, and Tamaulipas) is given. A total of 25 native species and three nontypical varieties are recognized in the study area. Bouteloua tamaulipensis G.J. Pierce ex D. Pacheco & Columbus, sp. nov., is described and illustrated. The names, Atheropogon acuminatus E. Fourn., Bouteloua burkii Scribn. ex S. Watson, Chondrosium drummondii E. Fourn., Chondrosium foeneum Torr., and Chondrosium subscorpioides Müll Hal., are lectotypified. A key for determining the species, descriptions, distribution maps, specimens examined, and synonymies are presented for all species of Bouteloua in north-eastern México.
