The macro and micro morphology of Kyllinga brevifolia, an invasive species, was investigated in this study. K. brevifolia species has been thoroughly described, and population distribution data has been updated. Furthermore, the populations of K. brevifolia species in our country were assessed, and the IUCN threat category was identified. Kyllinga brevifolia pollen grains are spherical in shape and have a micro-echinate-perforated surface ornamentation. The fruit of K. brevifolia is obovoid and elliptical in shape, with a lenticular cross section, and the fruit surface ornemantation is reticulated-tuberculate. The most important aspect of combating invasive species is understanding the plant well enough to combat it. In our study, the characteristics of an invasive species, K. brevifolia, are described in detail. Furthermore, this study determined the pollen and fruit morphology of K. brevifolia for the first time.
