Not a perfect fit (lateral awns seem too long), but central awns curved as in ramosissima and spikelets ascending. Quite distinct from A. oligantha which was also at the site. Perhaps a hybrid? Weedy base of eroded levee.

Observed on a pseudo-camping trip (slept in my car, tent is broken) to Big Cypress, hiking the Florida trail north of I-75 and the next trail a few miles west. Both of these trails had wildfires pass through a few months prior. Link to info about the fire:

I also did some blacklighting on Friday and Saturday night.

After Big Cypress, I wasn't sure where to go next and briefly stopped at Fakahatchee and then drove past Everglades City before heading home due to my car starting a little funny.
