    Reviewer's comments:
         "This image is not Pennisetum glaucum. P. glaucum is pearl millet, a crop of worldwide significance. The image appears to be yellow foxtail (a Setaria spp.), a noxious and invasive weed. There are some past nomenclature problems that cause this repeated error. The taxon for this image is wrong."
