Coleataenia is a genus of grasses in the tribe Paniceae of the family Poaceae. Until recently this genus was part of Panicum. In 2010, Zuloaga, Scataglini, & Morrone proposed the transfer of the Panicum sections Agrostoidea and Tenera to the new genus, Sorengia.[1] However, that same year, because one of the new species' synonyms was in the valid genus Coleataenia, Robert J. Soreng determined that Sorengia was not a valid name for the new genus and re-published it as Coleataenia.[2][3]
