Cyperus ixiocarpus is a sedge of the family Cyperaceae that is native to northern parts of Australia.[1][2]
The robust perennial sedge typically grows to a height of 0.45 to 1 metre (1.5 to 3.3 ft) and has a viscid tufted habit. The plant blooms between February and July producing yellow-green-brown flowers.[2]
The species was first described by the botanist Ferdinand von Mueller in 1887 as a part of the work, Transactions Of The Royal Society Of Victoria.[1]
It is found across northern Australia in Western Australia, Queensland and the Northern Territory in seasonally dry tropical areas.[1] In Western Australia it is found along sandy creek and river beds in the Gascoyne and Pilbara regions where it grows in red sandy-loamy soils.[2]
