Leymus Paboanus Subsp. Korshinskyi

Korshinsky's leymus, scientifically known as Leymus paboanus subsp. korshinskyi, is a rare grass species native to the arid regions of Central Asia. It thrives in harsh environments, often found in saline soils and dry steppes. This plant plays a vital role in stabilizing fragile ecosystems and supporting local wildlife. Its unique adaptations allow it to survive in extreme conditions with minimal water. Due to habitat loss and climate change, it faces increasing threats to its survival.
