According to a 2021 taxonomic revision based on molecular data, the genus includes two species, Actinoschoenus aphyllus and A. repens.[2] Reference databases Plants of the World Online and World Flora Online also include A. yunnanensis.[1][3]
- Actinoschoenus aphyllus (Vahl) Larridon – west-central tropical Africa, Madagascar and Mauritius, India and Sri Lanka, Indochina, southeastern China, western Malesia, and Australia
- Actinoschoenus repens J.Raynal – Zambia
- Actinoschoenus yunnanensis (C.B.Clarke) Y.C.Tang – Indochina to Assam and Yunnan
Formerly placed here
Previously, Actinoschoenus was circumscribed more widely, and included five species native to Australia. Those species are now considered to form a separate genus, Scleroschoenus K.L.Wilson, J.J.Bruhl & R.L.Barrett.[2][4][5]
