Discussion
Of conservation concern.
Carex tompkinsii is known to occur only in Fresno County, California. Specific status may not be warranted for this taxon; until a thorough review of its taxonomy has been completed, it seems best to maintain its rank to bring it to the attention of field botanists.
Selected References
None.
