The specimen in the herbarium consists of several 

 leaves and a panicle. The leaves are narrow and villous. 

 The glumes, especially the narrow lower one, are some- 

 what villous. This is what has been confused with 

 P. filiforme L. but is distinguished by the villous leaves 

 and the elongated spikes of more pubescent spikelets. 

 Michaux and Pursh refer this to Diqitaria mlom Michx.
