Description Rhizome with slender, rigid stolons. Culms 8-14 cm tall, slender, trigonous, slightly scabrous, clothed at base with sheaths disintegrating into reticulate fibers. Leaves shorter than culm, blades pale green, linear, ca. 1 mm wide, margins revolute. Involucral bracts reduced to shortly bladed, lowest one equaling inflorescence, shortly sheathing. Spikes 3, approximate, sessile; terminal spike gynaecandrous, subclavate, ca. 8 mm; lateral spikes female, oblong or ovate, densely many flowered but loosely flowered at base. Female glumes brown, ovate, margins narrowly white hyaline, 1-veined costa excurrent into a mucro at apex, apex acute. Utricles stramineous-ferruginous, longer than glume, ovate-elliptic, obtusely trigonous, obliquely patent, ca. 2 mm, membranous, faintly veined, base contracted, apex abruptly contracted into a smooth long beak, orifice 2-toothed; stigmas 3. [details]
