Inflorescences: proximal bracts shorter than or exceeding inflorescences; spikes overlapping, erect, elongate, sessile or short-pendunculate, contiguous, forming dense terminal cluster or separate, 10–20 × 5–7 mm; lateral 2–3 spikes pistillate; terminal spike gynecandrous. Pistillate scales dark brown or black to margins, lanceolate, 1–2 times as long as and narrower than perigynia, midvein lighter colored than body, conspicuous, frequently raised, prominent, apex acute or acuminate, mucronate.
