One species, C. latifolia, is northern temperate and circumboreal. The other three species are restricted to the Western Hemisphere. Cinna poaeformis (Kunth) Scribn. & Merr. extends from Mexico to Venezuela and Bolivia.</p><!-- --><p>The reduction of Limnodea to synonymy under Cinna by Tucker (1996) introduced a markedly discordant element into Cinna (Brandenburg and Thieret 2000), and has not been followed here.</p> |tables= |references={{Treatment/Reference |id=brandenburg1991a |text=Brandenburg, D.M., W.H.
