World Distribution
Dimeriinae Hack. is a little known subtribe, coming under the tribe Andropogoneae Dumort. of subfamily Panicoideae. The subtribe is considered as an enigmatic group of the family Poaceae and occupies a somewhat anomalous position in the subtribal classification. It is strictly a palaeotropical subtribe, largely distributed in Tropical Asia and chiefly confined to the Indian peninsula.
Usually, Dimerias have two tough racemes (inflorescence) of spikelets, from which the name of the subtribe is presumably derived.
