Description Rhizomes creeping, long, slender. Culms rather densely caespitose, 5–15 cm tall, slender, terete, grooved when dry. Leaves basal, semiterete, only apicalmost bearing a blade; leaf
blade 0.7–1.6 cm, shorter than culm, very slender. Involucral bract glumelike, shorter than spikelet, apex mucronate. Inflorescences reduced to a single terminal spikelet, obovoid to ellipsoid, ca. 4.5 × 2.5 mm, few flowered. Glumes ovate to elliptic, ca. 2.5 mm, membranous, both surfaces yellowish brown, with 1 green vein, margin pale hyaline, apex obtuse; basal 2 glumes empty. Perianth bristles absent. Stamens 3; anthers linear-ob
long; connective apex slightly evident beyond anthers. Style of medium length; stigmas 3. Nutlet blackish brown, obovoid, ca. 1.5 mm, 3-sided. [details]
