Alopecurus pratensis L. (Meadow foxtail) is reported here as a new record for the Indian subcontinent from the Kashmir Himalaya. This species differs from its closely allied A. arundinaceus Poir. in possessing straight or slightly converging glume apices, finely ciliate keel, long and exserted awn, and acute lemma apices. A detailed taxonomic account, including description, identification key and photographs are provided to facilitate its easier field identification.
