How can you be sure from this photo that this is parviflora and not curvula? Looks the same as the heads on the one identified as curvula at Eragrostis curvula (African Lovegrass)

Spikelet's are narrower, and the form of the inflorescence is generally more delicate with longer branches. This one is E.parviflora
