Names edit

According to [1], this is known as Bird's rice, Corn panic grass, Deccan grass, Jungle grass, Kalahari watergrass, Marsh grass, Millet rice, Pigeon millet and River grass. Probably everything except "Deccan" and "Kalahari" should have small letters. Also, according to Ainu_cuisine, the Ainu ate this and according to [2], the Ainu considered this species as a female cereal. --BB12 (talk) 05:06, 31 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Taxonomic name edit

Catalog of Life and Plants of the World Online show the name as Echinchloa colonum, not Echinocolona. I believe POWO before I believe Wikidata. DCDuring (talk) 00:42, 6 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
