Description Densely caespitose, without creeping rhizomes. Stems 7-40 cm, erect or nodding, filiform, obscurely trigonous, smooth; basal sheaths pale, often pinkish-brown, mostly with lamina, somewhat fibrous. Leaves shorter than stems, O-3-O-5 mm wide, canaliculate, usually circinnate towards apex. Male spike solitary, 7-12 x 1-5-3 mm. Female spikes 1-2, 5-10 x 4-5 mm, ovoid, dense, sessile, over lapping each other and base of male spike; lowest bract some times glumaceous, scarcely sheathing. Female glumes dark, often reddish-brown, with scarious margin. Utricles 4-5 mm, linear- to ovate-lanceolate, plano-convex, dark brown, with slender veins, sparsely puberulent, gradually narrowed into a long, scabrid, 2-fid beak. Stigmas 2. 2« = 34, 36.  [details]
