Leaves: basal sheaths pale brown to dark brown; blades green, much exceeding culms, 1.2–4.6 mm wide, herbaceous, margins green, smooth or scabrous. Lateral spikes 0–2(–3), basal, on erect or spreading (rarely drooping) peduncles. Terminal spikes with staminate portion 7–56-flowered, (5.4–) 9.6–20.1 × 0.7–1.6 mm; pistillate portion spike 2–4(–6)-flowered.
