Diplopogon is a genus of Australian plants in the grass family. It was first described in 1810 by Robert Brown.[2] As of 2017[update] it contains only a singles species, Diplopogon setaceus, found in southwestern Australia. It is similar to the genus Amphipogon, the only difference being the awns of the lemma.[3] It grows in seasonally wet areas, swamps, and fringing watercourses from Nannup to Albany. It flowers in spring and early summer in a greyish head of multiple spikelets.[4] References[edit] ^ Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families ^ Brown, Robert (1810).
