|discussion=<p><i>Rhynchospora globularis </i>var.<i> pinetorum</i> frequently shares habitat with <i></i></i>var.<i><i> globularis</i> in Georgia and northern Florida and, apart from a slightly taller and stiffer habit, and slightly longer and (sometimes) paler spikelets, <i></i></i>var.<i><i> pinetorum</i> looks like <i></i></i>var.<i><i> globularis</i> in the field. An inspection of fruit reveals significant differences. Of similar length, shape, and thickness, the fruit body of <i></i></i>var.<i><i> pinetorum</i> has a distinct, shallow surface network of subisodiametric lattices nearly level with frame, or alveolae more sunken and frame more raised. While the tubercle of most plants of <i></i></i>var.<i><i> globularis</i> is evenly conic, the slightly longer tubercle of those in <i></i></i>var.<i><i> pinetorum</i> is concavesided and sharpertipped.</p>
