Plants perennial; cespitose, not rhizomatous or stoloniferous. Culms 12-75 cm, erect, with up to 5 nodes. Leaves mostly basal, basal leaves usually persistent; sheaths smooth or scabridulous, ligules 1.2-6.3 mm, usually scabridulous, sometimes smooth, truncate to rounded, lacerate-erose; blades 10-30 cm long, (1)2-4 mm wide, flat, culm blades usually less substantial than the basal blades. Panicles 8-35(60) cm long, (1.5)2.5-14 cm wide, lanceolate-ovate, usually 3 times longer than wide, open, bases exserted from the upper sheaths at maturity, lowest node with 1-15 branches; branches scabrous to scabridulous, ascending, mostly branching above midlength, lower branches occasionally branching to near the base, spikelets somewhat clustered towards the tips, lower branches 2-10 cm, mostly longer than 3 cm; pedicels (0.5)1-3.5(6) mm; secondary panicles not present. Spikelets lanceolate to narrowly ovate, yellowish green to purple. Glumes unequal, 2-3.6 mm, 1(3)-veined, scabrous on the midvein, occasionally also sparsely scabridulous over the body, acute to acuminate; callus hairs to 0.2 mm, sparse; lemmas 1.5-2.5 mm, usually smooth, sometimes scabridulous or pubescent, translucent to opaque, 5-veined, veins faint or prominent distally, apices acute to obtuse, usually entire, sometimes erose or toothed, teeth to about 0.4 mm, usually unawned, sometimes awned from midlength, awns to 2 mm, straight, not exserted, sometimes awned and unawned spikelets present on the same plant; paleas absent, or to 0.2 mm and thin; anthers 3, 0.5-1.2 mm. Caryopses 1-1.6 mm; endosperm semisoft. 2n = 42.
