Description Culms bluntly trigonous, 5–35 cm, smooth or scabrous distally; vegetative stems ascending to erect when young, becoming prostrate stolons at maturity, elongating to 120 cm. Leaves: sheaths with fronts pale brown at apex; ligules 0.6–6.2 mm; blades 0.4–3 mm wide. Inflorescences 5–16 × 4–12 mm; spikes ascending to spreading, ovoid to broadly ovoid, 4–8 × 2–5 mm. Pistillate scales brownish with green center and paler margins, ovate to broadly ovate. Staminate scales ovate, apex obtuse to acuminate. Perigynia dark brown, 12–28-veined, 1.4–2.2 mm wide, apex erose to weakly bidentulate, glossy. Achenes silvery brown, smooth. 2n = 60. [details]
