Oryza glaberrima,^[1]Latinitate communioryza Africana^[2]appellata, estdomesticata oryzae species familiae Poacearum,minus communis minusque nota quamOryza sativa,speciesAsiatica.A Rolando Portères propositum est hanc speciem abhinc annorum 2000 vel 3000 domesticatam in mediterranea SuperiorisNigri fluminisdelta, in terra nuncMaliaappellata;^[3]alii suadent in pluribus locis domesticatam esse.^[4]Parens ferus, qui in Africa etiamnunc crescit, estOryza barthii.

Surculos nuper natos mox eripiunt et in locos minus humidos transplantant".^[8]Re vera in locos aquosiores transplantant, sicutMichael de la Courbe,anno fere 1685 per has regiones iter faciens, explicavit.^[9]

De virtutibus Shawn Murray anno2004"Oryzam Africanam" scripsit, "saporis nucei facultatisque ventrum generose replendorum causa, populi plures Africae occidentalis tanti ponderis aestimaverunt, ut cena sine hac haud cena sit".^[10]Similiter Olga Linares anno2002"oryza Africana stomacho graviorem esse dicitur" ait "famemque melius quatere. Farinam bonam, aromaticam, saporosam reddit... unde conficiuntur potionem, pultem, panicella sive elixanda seu craticulis torrenda".^[11]Fruges tam utiles, medio saeculo XX late cultae, hodie a plurimis reiiciuntur. Oryza Africana etiamnunc colitur, sed rarissime ut comedatur, fere semper ut deis offeratur.^[12]
