|discussion=<p>Before <i>Carex kobomugi</i> was formally recognized it was included in <i>C. macrocephala</i> Willdenow ex Sprengel. <i>Carex kobomugi</i> was collected during the early 1900s from ballast and sand near Portland, Oregon, but recent collections are not known; the habitat there may no longer exist. Clones of <i>C. kobomugi</i> have been registered by the U.S. Soil Conservation Service and the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station for long-term stabilization of coastal sand dunes. Its introduced range will likely expand.</p>
