Leaves erect or ascending, 4–15 cm; sheaths glossy brown or red-brown, chaffy; blade green, filiform or narrowly linear, twisted, to 1 mm wide, smooth. Inflorescences: scape sheaths exceeded by leaves; scapes linear, nearly terete, 0.5(–0.7) mm wide, smooth, not ribbed; spikes ellipsoid to obovoid, 5–7(–10) mm; fertile bracts ca. 4.5 mm, margins nearly entire, apex rounded. Flowers: lateral sepals included, reddish brown, linear-curvate, 4 mm, keel firm, ciliate; petals unfolding in morning, blade obovate, 4 mm; staminodes bearded. Seeds translucent, ellipsoid, 0.5 mm, distinctly longitudinally ribbed, with fainter transverse lines. 2n = 18.
