Discussion
Carex tonsa var. rugosperma has long been known as C. rugosperma but C. tonsa has priority. The two varieties of C. tonsa may occur together; intermediates are found occasionally. Plants with virtually glabrous perigynia may have long, scabrous leaves. Plants with a pubescent perigynia apparently never have coriaceous, short, and nearly smooth leaves.
