This paper reviews and adds information about the phenomena of vivipary and pseudovivipary in the Poaceac, which are reported from 21 genera belonging to subfamilies Pooideae, Panicoideae and Chloridoideae. A previously overlooked description of pseudovivipary in Digitaria angolensis is confirmed and constitutes the first record of pseudovivipary in the genus Digitaria. This species is illustrated for the first time and the proliferation phenomenon in the spikelets is described and documented. (c) 2006 SAAB. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
