In a sphagnous swamp near Utica. This species has also 
been detected on the Rocky Mountains by Mr. Drummond ; 
and at Hudson's Bay by Dr. Richardson. My specimens 
agree in every respect with an European specimen of C. livida 
in the herbarium of the late Rev. Mr. Schweinitz ; but I have 
never, except in a single specimen, noticed the distant or sub- 
radical peduncles, as in Schkuhr's figure. Wahlenberg, how- 
ever, in his Flora Suecica, remarks that the disposition of the 
pistillate spikes upon the culm is variable. — Whole plant glau- 
cous. Culm 4 — 10 inches in height. Glumes of jhe pistillate 
spike for the most part obtuse, but sometimes a little acute. 
Flowers in June.
