Plants annual or perennial; cespitose, sometimes rhizomatous. Culms 10-180 cm, glabrous or hispidulous; nodes 2-5, glabrous. Sheaths open, smooth or scabrous; auricles absent; ligules hyaline, glabrous, obtuse to acute; blades flat, smooth or scabrous over the veins. Inflorescences open panicles; branches drooping to ascending, smooth or scabrous, some branches longer than 1 cm. Spikelets pedicellate, dorsally compressed, with 1 floret; rachillas not prolonged beyond the base of the floret; disarticulation above the glumes, beneath the floret. Glumes equal, equaling or exceeding the lemmas, membranous, smooth or scabrous, unawned; calluses blunt, glabrous; lemmas dark, coriaceous, glabrous, lustrous, obscurely 5-veined, margins involute, apices unawned; paleas similar to the lemmas and partly enfolded by them; lodicules 2, free, glabrous, toothed or not; anthers 3; ovaries glabrous. Caryopses shorter than the lemmas, concealed at maturity, glabrous; hila 1/5 to nearly 1/2 the length of the caryopses. x = 4, 5,7,9.
