Plants perennial; cespitose, not mat-forming. Culms (6)9-20 (35) cm, erect or decumbent. Leaves basally concentrated on small plants, distributed along the culms in larger plants; ligules 1-3 mm, acute, obtuse, or truncate, entire; blades 1-2 mm wide when flat, 0.5-1.6 mm in diameter when involute. Panicles (3)6-12(14) cm, diffuse or contracted and usually barely exserted from the sheaths at maturity, lower branches ascending to horizontal, spikelets usually confined to the distal 2/3; pedicels slightly scabrous, epidermal cells tumid. Spikelets 4-8 mm, with (2)4-5(6) florets. Glumes rounded over the back, veins distinct or obscure, margins not inrolled, apices broadly acute or obtuse; lower glumes 1.3-2.1 mm; upper glumes 1.3-2.6(3.4) mm; calluses with a few hairs; lemmas 2.8-4 mm, herbaceous, thin, often translucent, bases hairy, particularly on the veins, backs rounded, 5-veined, veins obscure, not extending to the margins, lateral margins usually not inrolled, apical margins uniformly and densely scabrous, apices broadly acute or obtuse, entire or slightly erose; palea veins glabrous proximally, scabrous distally; anthers 0.7-1.1(1.2) mm. 2n = 56.
