Plants annual. Culms 20-40 cm, erect to ascending. Sheaths densely retorsely pilose; ligules 1.5-2.5 mm, glabrous or pilose, obtuse, lacerate; blades 7-8 cm long, 3-6 mm wide, pilose on both surfaces. Panicles (4)10-15 cm long, 4-7 cm wide, open, nodding; branches sometimes longer than the spikelets, spreading or ascending, sinuous. Spikelets 10-20 mm, lanceolate, terete to moderately laterally compressed; florets 5-9(11), bases concealed at maturity; rachilla internodes concealed at maturity. Glumes densely pilose; lower glumes 7-10 mm, 3-veined; upper glumes 8-12 mm, (5)7-veined; lemmas 9-11(13) mm long, 1-1.8 mm wide, lanceolate, densely pilose, distinctly 7-veined, rounded over the midvein, margins rounded, not inrolled at maturity, apices acute, bifid, teeth shorter than 1 mm; awns 10-16 mm, straight to weakly spreading, arising 1.5 mm or more below the lemma apices; anthers 0.7-1 mm. Caryopses equaling or shorter than the paleas, thin, weakly inrolled. 2n = unknown.
