|discussion=<p><i>Eleocharis erythropoda</i> is extremely variable. Intermediates with <i>E. palustris</i> variant b are common in the region of sympatry in the East, and with <i>E. macrostachya</i> variant b in the West, and <i>E. erythropoda</i> is sometimes difficult to distinguish from <i>E. uniglumis</i>.</p><!--
