First and second image belongs to different grass? because in the first one awn is present at apical region of the raceme. Second one appears to be Digitaria sp, First one appears to be Pogonatherum crinitum


You are right sir. The second grass photo I clicked was of the grass next to the first one. I assumed them to be of the same species. Thank you.


kindly check in Genus Sehima
most probably Sehima nervosum. All pics of same species

Sehima nervosum




Grass for ID : Borgad Conservation Reserve : Nasik : 01OCT21 : AK – 003:
Grass seen at the base of Borgad last month (1.10.21).
Couldn’t click pictures of the whole plant.


Leaves?


Unfortunately, these are the only pictures I have.


Could it be Eragrostis?
Eragrostis brachyphylla?
Just a guess.


I think it may be difficult to find even the genus with these images.
