Discussion
Cyperus sanguinolentus is the only rhizomatous, distigmatic Cyperus in the eastern United States. An early collection from Louisiana was described as C. louisianensis, supposedly endemic. Recent field work and morphometric studies convincingly showed it to be an introduction of the Asian C. sanguinolentus) (J. R. Carter and C. T. Bryson 2001.
