Upper lemma of the sessile spikelet is distinctly bifid with filiform lobes, mostly appressed to the column of its principal awn. The lobes are very delicate and caducous with age. Spikelets that are dissected at the time of fruiting are devoid of lemmatal lobes, it might be therefore well taken by many as the upper lemma entire. Lobes of the bifid lemma can be well observed during anthesis. This phenomenon is seen in both the endemic species of

). The sulcus is an effect of the impression cast on the young ovary by raised median longitudinal groove on the under surface of lower glume of sessile spikelet. One of the most peculiar features of this species is its short, flattened, hyaline-membranous (papery) style quite contrary to the usually occurring terete and solid style. This character needs to be checked in other congeners. This is the only species in the genus to have biseriately ciliate ligule.
