Isolepis is a genus of flowering plants in the sedge family, containing around 70 species. [2] Isolepis is cosmopolitan, and often found in cool tropical and temperate climates in Africa and Australasia. [3] [4]

Isolepis was first described by prolific botanist Robert Brown in 1810. [5] In 1870, the botanist Boeckeler disbanded the genus putting most of the names under a different genus, Scirpus. By the early 20th century Isolepis ceased to exist with other botanists following on from Boeckler's work. [3] It was not until the late 20th century that Isolepis was reinstated as a distinct genus due to embryological research.
