Flowers: bracteoles absent; tepals brown or occasionally paler, lanceolate, 4.5–6.6 mm, apex acute to obtuse; inner series slightly shorter; stamens 6, filaments 2.5–3.5 mm, anthers 0.6–1.3 mm; style 1–1.3 mm. Capsules chestnut brown, 3-locular, narrowly oblong, 6.5–8.5 × 1.8–2.3 mm. Seeds pale yellow, fusiform, body 0.6–0.7 mm, tails 0.8–1.1 mm. 2n = 60, 90, 120.
Phenology: Flowering and fruiting late spring–summer.
Habitat: Tundra, subalpine and alpine bogs and meadows, and along streams in gravelly or clayey soils
Elevation: 10–3700 m

Discussion
In southern Alaska some plants with several many-flowered heads and capsules about double the length of the perianth have been referred to the Asian Juncus castaneus subsp. leucochlamys. The distinction, however, seems dubious without further investigation.
