The inflorescence has a diffuse compound umbel with a length of Шаблон:Cvt with spherical to ovate shaped reddish-brown spikelets with a length of Шаблон:Cvt and a width of Шаблон:Cvt that are round or acute toward the apex. It has ovate Шаблон:Cvt long spirally arranged glumes and yellow anthers.[1]
Taxonomy
The species was first formally described by the botanist Charles Gaudichaud-Beaupré in 1829 as part of the work Voyage Autour du Monde ... sur les Corvettes de S.M. l'Uranie et la Physicienne as published in Botanique.[3]
Distribution
In Australia, it is found in Western Australia it is found in swamps, along creeks and rivers and other damp areas in the Kimberley region where it grows in sandy-clay alluvium often around basalt.[2] It is also found across the top end of the Northern Territory and tropical parts of Queensland.[1]
The species has been introduced and is regarded as a weed throughout North and South America. It is thought to have been introduced into the West Indies as a contaminant late in the nineteenth century and was collected in 1886 in Puerto Rico.[1]
