Sporobolus ioclados[lower-alpha 1], the pan dropseed, is a species of flowering plant in the grass family Poaceae.[2] It is native to seasonally dry areas with salty, sandy soils in Africa, Western Asia, and the Indian Subcontinent.[1] A tussock-forming perennial reaching 15 to 90 cm (6 to 35 in), it is an extremophile halophyte.[2] A C4 plant, it has been recognized as a variable but useful forage in saline soils.[3]
