--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Plants </b>cespitose; rhizomes short, tough, fibrous. <b>Culms</b>: fertile ones upright or nearly so; nodes without axillary bulblets. <b>Leaves</b> 3–9 per culm; sheaths of proximal leaves light brown; proximal sheaths and blades with septa few to many, rather inconspicuous; blades 20–35 cm × 5–9 mm. <b>Inflorescences</b> terminal; rays ascending or divaricate (usually both in the same inflorescence), rays often bearing axillary bulblets, proximal branches smooth, distal branches scabrellous to scabrous; bases of involucral bracts green, margins usually speckled with red-brown, rarely solid black, not glutinous. <b>Spikelets</b> in dense clusters of 4–55 (largest cluster with 15 or more), spikelets sessile, ovoid or broadly ovoid, 2–3.5 × 1.3–2.5 mm; scales blackish or occasionally brownish with pale midribs, elliptic or broadly elliptic, 1–1.4(–2) mm, apex mucronate, mucro 0.1–0.2 mm. <b>Flowers</b>: perianth bristles persistent, (4–)5–6, slender, straight or curved, shorter than to equaling achene, with retrorse, thin-walled, round-tipped barbs in distal (0.1–)0.2–0.4, enclosed within scales; styles 3-fid. <b>Achenes</b> pale brown, elliptic or obovate in outline, plumply trigonous, (0.6–)0.7–1.1 × 0.3–0.5 mm. <b>2n</b> = 56.</span><!--

|discussion=<p><i>Scirpus hattorianus</i> has been confused in the past with both <i>S. atrovirens</i> and <i>S. georgianus</i>. <i>Scirpus hattorianus</i> tends to be a more slender plant, and the scales of its spikelets are usually black, not brown. The perianth bristles are superficially intermediate between the other two. They are typically shorter and more delicate than those of <i>S. atrovirens</i>. In <i>S. hattorianus</i> the longest bristles are usually only 0.6–0.8 times as long as the achene, and barbed in the distal (0.1–)0.2–0.4; in <i>S. atrovirens</i> the longest bristles are usually 0.9–1.2 times as long as the achene and barbed in the distal 0.3–0.6. Some individuals fall outside these ranges and identification must be based on comparison of all the characters mentioned in the key. Separation from <i>S. georgianus</i> is discussed under <i>S. georgianus</i>.</p><!--
--><p><i>Scirpus hattorianus</i> occasionally hybridizes with <i>S. ancistrochaetus</i>, <i>S. atrocinctus</i>, <i>S. atrovirens</i>, <i>S. georgianus</i>, and <i>S. pedicellatus</i>. The name <i>Scirpus</i> peckii Britton has been applied to hybrids between <i>S. hattorianus</i> and <i>S. atrocinctus</i> or <i>S. pedicellatus</i>.</p>
