Similar to the widespread and abundant Carex microptera, smallwinged sedge, but the perigynia are broad, over 2 mm wide, and the perigynia margins are crinkeled. The very tip of the perigynia beak tends to be entire and cylindric. Sporadically common along the JMT. This site is at Marie Lake, on the north side of Selden Pass.
Shasta sedge is a native bunched perennial common in upper elevation usually subalpine settings. Similar to Carex microptera, smallwing sedge, but the perigynia are circular in outline, or nearly so, and the winged margins are crinkled.
