Panicles with (1)2-4(7) branches in a single digitate cluster; branches 7-15(25) cm, divergent to drooping, spikelet-bearing to the base. Spikelets with 2 florets. Glumes hyaline to thinly membranous, lanceolate, scabrous or smooth, long-acuminate; lower glumes 1.5-3 mm; upper glumes 4-6.5 mm; lower lemmas 3.5-5 mm, scabrous distally, notched, awned, awns 7-15 mm; distal florets about 0.8-1.8 mm, sterile, attenuate into the rachilla, awned, awns 3-7 mm.
