Description Herbs perennial. Rhizome short, ligneous. Culms central, 20-80 cm tall, trigonous, covered with brown bladeless sheaths at base. Leaves shorter than culms; leaf-blade green or glaucous, flat, slightly revolute, leathery, 3. 5-7 mm wide, acuminate at apex, scabrous on upper margins. Involucral bracts leaf-like, shorter than inflorescence, sheathed; sheaths 2-3 cm long, obliquely truncate at orifice. Inflorescence paniculate, with 2, rarely 3 spikes; terminal spike staminate» cylindrical, 2. 5-5 cm long, ca. 5 mm wide, with a very long peduncle at base; lateral spikes pistillate, cylindrical, 2-6 cm long, 9-10 mm wide, densely flowered, bearing a few staminate flowers at apex, pedunculate; peduncles exserted from sheaths. Staminate scales oblanceolate, yellowish green, 9-10 mm long, acuminate at apex, green 1-veined costa excurrent into a short awn. Pistillate scales ovate, pale green or yellowish green, 7-7. 5 mm long (including awn), acuminate at apex, green 3-veined costa excurrent into a ca. 2 mm long scabrous awn. Perigynia broadly ovoid or ovoid (excluding beak), 7-8
mm long, slightly longer than pistillate scales (including beak), obliquely patent, obtusely trigonous, papery» yellowish green» distinctly veined, densely pubescent on veins, gradually contracted into a ca. 3. 5 mm long beak; orifice 2-lobed with long teeth. Stigmas 3; style slightly thicken at base. Achenes tightly enveloped, rhombic-ovoid, trigonous, 3-3. 5 mm long (including beak), yellowish brown or castaneous, with 3 angles constricted at middle, sides concave above and below, shortly curved, stipitate at base, abruptly contracted into a short beak at apex, beak coiled.
