Notes
The plants that now have been named Cenchrus spinifex Cav. were previously identified as C. tribuloides L. (Biel & Tan 2016: 432); this species is even larger in all its floral parts (spines and spikelets) and the ‘burs’ are even more densely villous pubescent, but the species is not known to be weedy.
