Habit:  grass

Description:  Grass, "Stoloniferous perennial, culms to 60 (-100) cm long (rarely more), decumbent or suberect, rooting at nodes, glabrous, compressed, often reddish-purple, emitting long leafy stolons pilose on the nodes; sheaths 2-6  cm long, compressed, pilose on the collar; ligule membranous, less than 1.1 mm long; blades 8-12 (-14) cm long, 5-15 mm wide, ciliate-scabrous on margins, glabrous or nearly so; racemes usually 2, paired, widely spreading, 4-15 cm long (usually 6-10 cm); rachis 1 mm wide, glabrous; spikelets 1.5 mm long (rarely 2 mm), ovate, pale stramineous; glume silky-ciliate, sterile lemma usually similar; fertile lemma coriaceous, much firmer than the glume and sterile lemma; caryopsis 1 mm long, equally wide, compressed, white or very pale" (Stone, 1970; p. 216).

Description from GrassBase.

Habitat/ecology:  This perennial, stoloniferous grass rapidly invades wet habitats from sea level to 2,000 m. It forms a dense ground cover even on acidic, low-nutrient soils. Neal (1965) noted that "some native forests have become extinct due to this pest."  It is found in wet habitats (Smith, 1985; p. 196).

In Hawai‘i, "naturalized in moist to wet, disturbed sites such as along roadsides and in open fields, 10-950 m"  (Wagner et al., 1999; pp. 1575, 1576).  In Fiji, "common at elevations up to 1,300 m., along roadsides and in cultivation, in pastures, villages, plantations, and along beaches and river banks"  (Smith, 1979; p. 336). In Papua New Guinea, "a common grass of roadsides, rough lawns, pastures (where it is moderately useful) and particularly a weed of plantations; it grows vigorously under partial shade and may compete seriously with tree crops" (Henty & Pritchard, 1975; p. 43). In New Caledonia, "maintenant très commune à l'état spontané, surtout en lieux frais et ombragés" (MacKee, 1994; p. 60).

Propagation:  The small seeds are probably distributed by man and animals on clothing and fur. Also spreads by stolons.

Native range:  Tropical America but now found throughout the tropics as a weed.

Comments:  An aggressive and persistent species.

Control: 

Physical: "Cannot be controlled by mulches due to strong stoloniferous growth.  Slashing encourages the plant.  Fairly palatable to most stock, especially when young.  Checked by cultivation at any stage, and controlled by repeated cultivation in dry soils.  Tolerates light shade" (Swarbrick, 1997; p. 28). "Can be displaced in pastures by taller forage grasses and controlled grazing"  (Motooka et al., 2003).

Chemical:  "Susceptible to:  1) residual herbicides including naproamide, oxyflurofen, diuron, chlorthal, EPTC, atrazine, pendimethalin, propachlor, bromacil, metolachlor, trifluralin, benfluralin, ametryn, cyanazine and vernolate at standard rates; 2) translocated herbicides, including fluozifop, glyphosate, sethoxydim, DSMA, haloxyfop, and amitrole at standard rates;  3) contact herbicides, including paraquat, as seedlings and at standard rates" (Swarbrick, 1997; p. 28).  "Sensitive to glyphosate and imazapyr, both non-selective herbicides, the latter with some residual soil activity" (Motooka et al., 2003).

Biological: Waterhouse (1994; pp. 178-182) lists natural enemies but at present there are no satisfactory biological control agents.
