Abstract By giving a full Latin description and designating the holotype , Deyeuxia himalaica is
validated.
Key words Deyeuxia himalaica;Validation
In the course of revising the Chinese Deyeuxia , I found that D.himalaica L.Liou published
in “Flora Xizangica” (Lu &Liou , 1987)and “Flora Reipublicae Popularis Sinicae ” (Lu , 1987)
was accompanied only by a Chinese description , but not a Latin one , and no type was designated.
According to the Art.36.1 and 37.1 of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (Saint
Louis)(Greuter et al., 2000), D.himalaica is an invalid name.I have re-examined the speci-
mens referred to this species by Liou , and found that they represent indeed a good species.In order
to validate this name , a full Latin description is given , and its holotype is designated.

This species is closely related to D.scabrescens , but differs by having the spikelets usually
2-, occasionally 1-flowered , the two lateral and two intermediate nerves of the lower lemma pro-
longed into 4 teeth 0.2 ~ 0.8 mm long , the dorsal awn inserted from 1 5 ~ 2 5 below the apex , 8 ~
10 mm long , scabrid , reflexed , and the rhachilla 1 mm long , bearing hairs 0.8 ~ 1.0 mm long.
