Agropyropsis is a monotypic genus of grasses closely related to Catapodium.[2] It is native to the Batna Province in northeastern Algeria,[3][4] and only contains a single species, Agropyropsis lolium.[1][5][6] It once included a second species, Agropyropsis gracilis, which has since been renamed and moved to Lolium canariense.[1]
