Description Culms 3–64 cm tall, wiry, flexuous, decumbent or prostrate, 0.2–0.5 (–0.75) mm wide at ca. 1 cm below the inflorescence, finely scabrous-angled; bladeless basal sheaths yellowish brown or only little red-tinged. Inflorescences 1.1–2.6 (–3.2) mm long, the lowest bracts little more than an awned scale to filiform-triangular, 0.25–3 cm long, usually shorter than to equaling the inflorescence; terminal spikes (6–) 8–17 mm long, the staminate portion 1–4.5 mm long, usually less than half the length of the spike. Pistillate scales 1.8–2.3 mm long; staminate scales 2.7–3.1 (–3.7) mm long. Perigynia 2.2–3.2 (–3.4) mm long. Achenes 1.6–2.2 mm long. Anthers 1.4–2.1 mm long. [details]

[details]Habitat Carex boliviensis var. boliviensis is known from central and southern Mexico, and in South America from Peru south to northern Argentina. In Mexico it occurs in alpine to subalpine sites, usually in swampy areas and along streambanks, but sometimes in drier meadows between 2700 and 3940 m (Fig. 3). In South America it grows at elevations up to 4100 m. Fruiting occurs from June to October. [details]
