Credit: cs kuoh

Annuals; culm base prostrate, branching, mostly less than 25 cm high, glabrous. Blades 5-8 cm long, 2.5-6 mm wide; sheath glabrous, shorter than internode; ligule 1-1.5 mm long, membranaceous. Inflorescence subcontracted with 2-3 digitate racemes, racemes 4-9 cm long, slender; rachis 0.6 mm wide, winged, entire or minutely serrulate. Spikelets narrowly lanceolate, 2.8-3 mm long, ca. 1 mm wide, with unequal scabrid triangular pedicels; lower glume minute but distinct, veinless, ca. 0.3 mm long; upper glume membranaceous, narrow, 3-veined, villous near margins, 2/3-3/5 as long as spikelet; lower lemma as long as spikelet, lanceolate, membranaceous, 7-veined, villous; upper lemma coriaceous, lanceolate, pale, as long as lower lemma.
