Coelorachis is a genus of plants in the grass family, widespread across much of Asia, Africa, Australia and the Americas. , its taxonomic status is confused.
==Taxonomy== The genus Coelorachis was erected by Adolphe-Théodore Brongniart in 1831. Two misspellings (orthographic variants) have created some confusion. In 1836, Stephan Endlicher used the spelling Coelorhachis. In 1882, Ferdinand von Mueller used the spelling Coelorrhacis.
