|discussion=<p><i>Carex joorii</i> is more robust than <i>C. glaucescens</i> and can be distinguished from C. glaucesens and <i>C. verrucosa</i> by the acute apex of the scale body, the strongly veined, squarrose perigynia with low, flattened papillae, and the broadened base of the achene. Occasional specimens have been observed with papillae characteristic of <i>C. glaucescens</i>; such specimens may result from hybridization.</p>
