Panicle open, 15–25 × 5–10 cm, axis and branches stiff, scabrous; racemes ascending, with secondary branching; spikelets widely spaced, paired or single in upper part. Spikelets 5–5.5 mm; lower glume broadly elliptic, 3/4 spikelet length, 5-veined; upper glume and lower lemma as long as spikelet, 5-veined, apex slightly thickened; lower palea hyaline, narrow; upper lemma smooth, shining, slightly shorter than spikelet, apex thickened and protruding.
