inæqui-dentatæ, inter nervos plerumque transversim venulosæ. Glu- 
mella extima glumis conformis, at longior, o-nervis, raro muero 
nulata ; intima autem angustior hyalina, 2-carimata. Stamina 3, Slyli 
9, distincti, apice stigmatoso laxe plumosi. Fructus oblongus, in- 
clusus at liber. — Herbæ nune debiles, basi decumbenti-ramosæ, 
nunc elatiores validæ ; foliis planis, sessilibus v. petiolatis, ovatis v. 
ovato-lanceolatis, inter venas transverse venulosis ; panicula termi- 
nali, aut densa, aut laxe effusa ; spiculis nutantibus paucis ; rhachilla 
continua v. sub flore inferiore articulata, sæpe elongata. (America 
trop. utraque".)

Glumæ 2 : extima parva ; intima autem multo longior convoluta atulà 
mutica, æ-nervis. Glumellæ longiores rigidioresque arcte convolulæ, 
æ-nerves, tenuiter aristatæ (summæ 1-3 vacuæ gradatimque minores); 
intima inclusa angusta membranacea, 2-carimala, breviter 2-fida. Glu- 
mellulæ 2, 3, angustæ. Stamina 2, 3. Germen in stylum longe attenuè- 
tum ; ramis 9, 3, longissime filiformibus, demum apice spiraliter Loris, 
breviter stigmatoso-papillosis. Fructus linearis teres exsulcus, glumellis 
induratis inclusus at liber. — Herba elatiuscula erecta; foliis elonga- 
is planis, longe in vaginam angustatis ; venulis transversis tesselatis; 
inflorescentia longe spiciformi rigida ; spiculis lineari-teretibus in Spiéè 
Î-laterali subsessilibus; rhachilla inter flores articulata ; floribus 
saltem inferioribus hermaphroditis. (India, Africa, America Ca 
utraque*.)
