Species forsan C. difformi affinis, a quo tarnen culmis gracilioribus, foliis brevibus et praesertim 

 spiculis in capitulis minus numerosis et minus densis, pallidis, glumis distantibus, majoribus et abrupte 

 acutis, nucibus glumis manifeste brevioribus longe distat. C. trinervis ad speciem nostram cbaracteribus 

 nonnullis, praecipue spicularum structura et intlorescentiae forma propius quam C. difformis accedere 

 videtur, sed differt radiis pro more elongatis, spiculis fasciculatis minus numerosis, glumis minus distantibus, 

 nuce multo minore, bracteis involucrantibus plurioribus, foliaceis, elongatis.
