Setaria (Latin, seta, a bristle). Gramineae. Annual or sometimes perennial grasses with bristly spike-like panicles: spikelets as in Panicum, but subtended by 1 to several bristles that extend beyond the spikelet and persist after the spikelet falls: the fr., that is, the mature fertile floret, usually transversely wrinkled.— Species about 40 in the warmer regions of the world. Several species are annual weeds, such as Yellow Fox-tail (S. glauca, Beauv.) with oblong yellow spikes, and 5 or more bristles below each spikelet, and Green Fox-tail (S. viridis, Beauv.), with somewhat pointed green spikes and 1-3 bristles below each spikelet. Many American botanists use the name Chaetochloa instead of Setaria. (Dept. Agric., Div. Agrost., Bull. 21, is devoted to this genus.) The setarias are scarcely horticultural subjects, being primarily forage plants; but they are so widespread in cult. and the forms are so confused that a somewhat full discussion of them may be inserted here.
