A genus of tropical grasses, some species of which are used as pasture or lawn grasses.
From Greek 'axon' (axis) + 'pus' (foot), literally 'axis-foot,' referring to the central axis of the grass's inflorescence structure.
Axonopus grass has that name because its seed heads are arranged on a central axis like feet radiating from a body—and some species are so aggressive at spreading that they're classified as invasive weeds in certain regions.
