Spike (3–) 4–5, distal 2–4 overlapping; lateral spikes pistillate, with 3–18 perigynia, 5–26 × 4.6–9.8 mm, ratio of spike length (in mm) to flower number = 1.3–1.9; terminal spikes 7–34 × 1.1–2.7 mm. Pistillate scales 3.7–8 × 1.2–2.4 mm, margins whitish and usually with red-brown speckles, entire, apex with awn 1.1–6 mm. Staminate scales 3.6–4.9 × 1.1–1.9 mm. Anthers 2–2.8 mm. Perigynia spirally imbricate, 52–64-veined, unwrinkled to wrinkled, oblong-lanceoloid to narrowly oblong-ovoid, obtusely triangular in cross section, 4.2–5(–5.2) × 1.5–1.9(–2.2) mm, (2.2–)2.5–3.1 times as long as wide, lustrous, base very gradually tapered, apex gradually tapered; beak absent or straight, 0–0.2 mm. Achenes broadly obovoid to oblong-obovoid, widest at 0.55–0.67(–0.7) of body length, (2.6–)2.8–3.4 × (1.3–)1.5–1.7(–1.8) mm, loosely enveloped by perigynia; stipe straight, (0.3–)0.4–0.6 mm; beak straight, 0.3–0.6 mm.

Carex amphibola: Brief Summary
(
Inglês
)
fornecido por wikipedia EN
Carex amphibola, known as gray sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the family Cyperaceae. It was first formally named in 1855. Carex amphibola is native to the eastern United States and Canada.
Carex amphibola is commonly confused with Carex grisea, which has somewhat greener perigynia with more rounded tips, versus the gray-green coloring and angular tips of C. amphibola perigynia. The perigynia of C. amphibola are somewhat more clustered and spreading at maturity, while those of C. grisea are strongly ascending.
Carex amphibola grows in mesic deciduous forests, often in loamy areas near streams.
