Paspalum conjugatum. Drawn by Mary Wright Gill From Hitchcock and Chase 1950.

Judging from the names of this species throughout its range, people have had strong feelings either for or against this grass. Some pastoral groups dislike the grass because it does not provide good forage for their animals-ostensibly because of its sour taste. Others praise it highly as food for their animals. For people, though, the grass is sometimes important in remedies.
