Bromus rubens L.

Bromus fasciculatus: Annual; culm(s) solitary or often in small tufts, 5–20 cm, ascending to erect. Lower leaf sheaths retrorsely pubescent; blade 1–2 mm wide, puberulent at least beneath; ligule up to 4 mm, lacerate. Panicle 2–5 cm, erect, dense, obovoid in outline, narrowly cuneate at base, with 1 or 2 spikelets on each branch, usually pale greenish. Spikelets compressed, 4–9-flowered, cuneiform, widest at top. Lemmas 11–13 × 1–1.5 mm, narrowly lanceolate, with narrow scarious margins and 2 sharp apical teeth; awn subapical, about as long as lemma, curving outwards at maturity.

Bromus rubens: Very similar to B. fasciculatus, but panicle often larger, broadly cuneate at base, with 2–4 spikelets on each branch, often reddish; lemmas somewhat wider (2–2.5 mm), with relatively broad scarious margins; awn remaining straight at maturity.
