Abstract

Introduction Semeskandeh protected area, Sari (Mazandaran prov.), is one of the remnant lowland forests of Hyrcanian district, N Iran. This forest is protected by the Department of Environment and mainly dominated by Quercus castaneifolia and Parrotia persica trees. During a floristic and vegetation study on this area, a new genus of grass family (Monerma P. Beauv.) was collected from the forest-edge areas. After detail assessment on the collected specimens using many Flora books, it was determined as M. cylindrica which has not been reported in Flora Iranica area (Bor, 1970).
