|discussion=<p><i>Carex nudata</i> is also a member of the <i>C. stricta</i> group and is distinguished from sympatric members of the group by flowering from first-year shoots and having very narrow inflorescence bracts and somewhat elongated, heavily veined perigynia. It has a very distinctive growth form and habitat, dense tussocks among rocks in streambeds.</p>
