- The map is currently incomplete until herbarium specimens statewide can be examined to separate it from Digitaria sanguinalis, s.s., with which it has been lumped in virtually all Virginia floristic studies. See also the composite map (Digitaria sanguinalis / ciliaris complex) containing all records for both species.
