From editor or global species database
Original description Low, scarcely exceeding a foot or fifteen inches high ; spikes two to four, all sessile and approximated at the top of the culm, small and straight (an inch or less long), dull brown or reddish-brown, loosely flowered ; perigynium very thin and membranaceous, the body mostly larger than in the species and more gradually contracted into the beak. Its spikes lack entirely the dense and hystricinous aspect of the species. It is not improbable that it may be a mixture with C. lupulina, Muhl.
