Lingnania

Type: Lingnania chungii (McClure) McClure, 1940

Synonym: Neosinocalamus Keng f., 1983.

Suprageneric classification: subtribe Bambusinae J. Presl, 1830; tribe Bambuseae Kunth ex Dumort., 1829; subfamily Bambusoideae Luerss., 1893; family Poaceae Barnhart, 1895 (nom. alt.: Gramineae Juss., 1789); superorder Lilianae Takht., 1967; order Poales Small, 1903. — Soreng & al., 2017 [#1252b].

Comments: There is strong support from the molecular study by Jing-Xia Liu & al., 2020, that the genus Lingnania forms a separate lineage (Clade B2) in the Bambusa-Dendrocalamus-Gigantochloa complex and should be separated from Bambusa s.l. — Table 1 in J. X. Liu & al., Mol. Phylogen. Evol. 146, 2020 [#1351].
