Translation Cespitose herbaceous plant. Creeping roots. Stems flaccid, about 1½ feet long, leafy, scaly at the base, acutely triangular, ridged, with scabrous angles. Leaves very long, shorter or about the same length as the longest stems, narrowly linear, 1½ lines wide, flat, glabrous on both surfaces, rough above and on the margins, smooth beneath. All sheaths smooth, glabrous, lacking an opposite ligule; the lower leaves are bladeless, purple, and with margins disintegrating into fibers forming networks, like a ladder. Staminate spikes 1-2, terminal, linear; Scales scarious, oblong, the upper ones acuminate, submucronate, midrib excurrent. Pistillate spikes 2-3, lateral, distant, linear, loose-flowered, erect, the upper one subsessile, the lower 2 shortly pedunculated; foliose bracts very long, narrowly linear, subequal to the stem, lacking a sheath; scales ovate-lanceolate, leaf-green on the back, scarious on the margin, gradually narrowing upwards, acuminate, awned-mucronate with an excurrent midrib, mucro with scabrous margins. Sometimes, in addition, there is sometimes a fourth female spike, adventitious, with a very long peduncle, emerging from the sheath of the distal leaf of the stem, which is then very long. Immature perigynia equal to or exceeding the scales, ovate-conical, swollen, long-beaked, glabrous, smooth, erectopatent, ribbed; The beak is elongated, long, with two teeth, convex at the back, flat at the front. Stigmata 3. [details]
Translation Plante herbacée cespiteuse. Racine rampante. Tiges molles, d'environ 1½ pied de long, feuillées, écailleuses à la base, triangulaire aigues, striées, à angles scabre. Feuilles très longues, plus courtes ou environ de la même longueur que les tiges les plus hautes, étroitement linéaires, 1½ lignes de largeur, plates, glabres sur les deux faces, rugueuses sur le dessus et sur les marges, lisse en dessous. Toutes les gaines sont lisses, glabres, dépourvues de ligule opposée, les feuilles inférieures sont dépourvues de limbe, violettes et à marges se désintégrant en fibres formant des réseaux, comme une échelle. Épillets mâles 1-2, terminaux, linéaires ; Écailles scarieuses, oblongues, les supérieures acuminées, submucronées, nervure centrale excurrentes. Épillets femelles 2-3, latéraux, distants, linéaires, à fleurs lâches, dressés, le supérieur subsessile, les 2 inférieurs courtement pédonculés ; bractées foliacées très longues, étroitement linéaires, subégales à la tige, dépourvues de gaine ; écailles ovales-lancéolées, vert feuille sur le dos, scarieuses sur la marge, se rétrécissant progressivement vers le haut, acuminées, aristées-mucronées avec une nervure médiane excurrente, mucron avec des marges scabres. Parfois, en plus, il y a un quatrième épi femelle, adventif, avec un très long pédoncule, sortant de la gaine de la feuille distale de la tige, qui est alors très longue. Périgynes immatures égalant ou dépassant les écailles, ovales-coniques, gonflés, à long bec, glabres, lisses, dressés-étalés, nervurés ; Le bec est allongé, long, avec deux dents, convexe à l'arrière, plat à l'avant.
