Description  Herbs perennial, basal sheath fibrous, culms densely caespitose, 20−40cm tall, reddish or brownish near the base, with old leaves usually persisting, leaves shorter than culms, 1.5−3.0mm wide, usually flat, pale green, scabrous along the margins. Terminal spike staminate, linear cylindrical or lanceolate, 1.0−3.0cm long, 1.5−3.0mm wide, lateral spike pistillate narrowly cylindrical, subsessile or shortly pedunculate, 0.5−2.5cm long, 2.0mm wide. lateral spike number 1-2, Staminate scales pale brown, oblong, margins entirely white membranous, 2.5−4.5mm long, 1.5−2.0mm wide, apex obtuse or rounded. Pistillate scales pale green, obovate, margins entirely white membranous, 2.0−2.5mm long, slightly shorter than the perigynia, apex acuminate, long aristate; arista 2.0− 3.0mm long. Perigynia fusiform, 2.5−3.0mm long, pale green, puberulent, multiveined, the beak bidentate, margin scabrous. Achenes ellipsoid to obovate at maturity, trigonous, 1.5−2.0 mm long, about 1mm wide, dark brown, angles shallowly constricted at middle, apex annulated, stigmas 3. [details]
