Sporadic sterile hybrids between Carex gynodynama and C. mendocinensis are well documented. A reported hybrid with C. hendersonii needs further study to confirm parentage. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Carex eleusinoides is a member of the C. acuta complex based on amphistomic and amphi-papillose leaves, perigynia that are stipitate and basally distended by the achenes, and chromosome number. It differs from other western members of the group by distinctly red basal sheaths, and by absence of distinct veins on very small perigynia.
