--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Plants </b>loosely cespitose; rhizomes ascending to erect, reddish to reddish brown, 0–10(–20) mm, slender. <b>Culms</b> 5–40 cm, weakly scabrous distally; bases not fibrous. <b>Leaf</b> blades green, equaling or exceeding culms, 0.7–1.5 mm wide, herbaceous, smooth to papillose abaxially, weakly scabrous adaxially. <b>Inflorescences</b> with both staminate and proximal spikes; peduncles of staminate spikes 1.9–5.9 mm; proximal nonbasal bracts leaflike, equaling or shorter than inflorescences. <b>Spikes</b>: proximal pistillate spikes 2–3 (basal spikes 0); cauline spikes remote, nonoverlapping, proximal 2 usually separated by more than 7 mm, with 3–10 perigynia; staminate spikes 4–15 × 0.7–1.3 mm. <b>Scales</b>: pistillate scales pale brown to pale reddish brown, ovate, 2–2.5 × 1–1.4 mm, shorter than to equaling perigynia, apex cuspidate to acuminate; staminate scales oblong to oblanceolate, 3.1–4.6 × 0.7–1.3 mm, apex long-acuminate to obtuse. <b>Anthers</b> 1.5–2.1 mm. <b>Perigynia</b> pale green, veinless, ellipsoid, 2.2–2.6 × 0.8–1 mm, longer than wide; beak 0.3–0.7 mm, straight, pale green, apical teeth 0.2–0.3 mm. <b>Stigmas</b> 3. <b>Achenes</b> dark brown, obovoid to ellipsoid, acutely trigonous in cross section, 1.4–1.7 × 0.7–0.9 mm.</span><!--

|discussion=<p>Recently discovered plants on the coastal plain in South Carolina resemble <i>Carex novae-angliae</i> in habit and perigynium features and have well-developed basal spikes. They require further study to determine their relationships with other members of the section.</p>
