- Type species: Austrofestuca littoralis (Labill.) E.B.Alexeev, Byull. Moskovsk. Obshch. Isp. Prir., Otd. Biol., n.s., 81(5): 55 (1976)
Note: Now accepted as a synonym of Poa, as Austrofestuca littoralis is included in Poa. Whilst Hookerochloa is reinstated to accommodate A. eriopoda and A. hookeriana, thus rendering Austrofestuca redundant as a genus.
