|discussion=<p><i>Carex lenticularis </i>var.<i> lipocarpa</i> is the most abundant member of the species in western North America. It is distinguished from the other western taxa by the green, short-stipitate, ellipsoid perigynia and the elongate inflorescence; it is distinguished from the eastern <i></i>var.<i> lenticularis</i> by the black scales and the red-brown beak orifice.</p><!--
--><p>Despite the morphologic similarity of <i>Carex lenticularis </i>var.<i> lenticularis</i> and <i>C. lenticularis </i>var.<i> lipocarpa</i> and the apparent intergradation where the two ranges come into contact, there appears to have been some divergence in chromosome numbers.</p>
