Cyperus cuspidatus , commonly known as the coastal plain flatsedge ,[2] is a sedge of the family Cyperaceae that is native to seasonally dry tropical areas of Africa , Asia , the Americas and Australia .[3] [4]
Description [ edit ]
The annual sedge typically grows to a height of 2.5 to 15 centimetres (0.98 to 5.91 in ) and has a tufted habit. In Australia it blooms between February and August producing green-yellow-brown flowers.[4] The plant has a slender root system. The glabrous culms are tufted and have a triangular cross-section with length of 1 to 17 cm (0.39 to 6.69 in ) and a width of 0.2 to 0.5 mm (0.0079 to 0.0197 in ). It has linear shaped leaf blades that can be flat or rolled that taper to a pointed end. The leaves are 1 to 13.5 cm (0.39 to 5.31 in ) in length and have a width of 0.2 to 1.1 cm (0.079 to 0.433 in ). the leaves are accompanied by red-brown to purple coloured sheaths of a similar length and width.[5]
Taxonomy [ edit ]
The species was described by the botanist Carl Sigismund Kunth in 1816 as a part of the work Nova genera et species plantarum authored by Kunth, Aimé Bonpland and Alexander von Humboldt . It has a total of 18 synonyms including; Cyperus angustifolius , Cyperus gratus , Cyperus recurvus , Cyperus waterlotii and Dichostylis cuspidata .[3] The type specimen was collected by von Humboldt and Bonpland in Venezuela in 1800.[6]
Distribution [ edit ]
In Australia it is found in Queensland , the Northern Territory and it is found along creeks, streams and rivers in the Kimberley region of Western Australia where it grows in stony red sand-loam soils over sandstone .[4] In Asia it is found from Pakistan in the west to China in the east and extends down into Malesia . It is found in southern parts of North America extending through Central America and in northern parts of South America .[3]
