Leaves: basal sheaths fibrous; sheath fronts membranous, sometimes slightly transversely rugose, septate-nodulose; blades with 2 lateral veins on adaxial side more prominent than midvein, M-shaped in cross section when young, widest leaves not more than 10 mm, glabrous. Inflorescences racemose, with (3–)4–6 spikes; proximal bracts leaflike, sheathless or very short-sheathing; lateral spikes pistillate or gynecandrous with few staminate flowers, pedunculate, prophyllate; terminal spike gynecandrous. Proximal pistillate scales with apex acute or mucronate. Perigynia rigidly spreading, veinless on faces but with 2 strong marginal veins, stipitate, transversely wrinkled, very broadly obovate, compressed-trigonous in cross section, base cuneate, apex rounded, abruptly beaked, glabrous; beak bent, to 0.2 mm, orifice entire or emarginate.
