Panicles 10-15 cm, contracted, usually partially enclosed in the upper sheath; branches appressed to ascending, with 1-4 spikelets. Glumes 60-80(90) mm, long-attenuate, mostly hyaline; florets (18)20-27 mm; calluses 3-6 mm; lemmas with lines of hair over the veins and marginal veins, lines over the marginal veins longest, extending to the lemma apices; awns (250)300-500 mm, twice-geniculate, first 2 segments glabrous or hairy, hairs to 2 mm, terminal segment plumose, hairs 5-6 mm, spreading; paleas subequal to the lemmas, usually hairy on the keels, apices scarious; anthers 5-10 mm, not penicillate, yellowish or purplish; styles 2.
