We usually think of Cyperaceae as having small, wind-pollinated flowers, but Rhynchospora latifolia has gone in for insect pollination via pseudanthia. The showy, white bits subtending the spikelets are bracts. #pseudanthia #Cyperaceae #botany 🌾🧪🌱
Photo of the heads of this sedge. Each one is subtended by white, linear bracts.

I finished my paper today. Woo-hoo!
Lots and lots of minor details to finish it off. Now back to looking at other Cyperaceae stuff.

Cyperus 🥰

família Cyperaceae.

Nascem aqui vários da mesma família. 😍
Planta que lembra um guarda-chuva com folhas parecendo capim e hastes com pequenas flores.

Sedges (Poales: Cyperaceae: Carex spp.) can be distinguished from distantly related grasses and rushes thanks to one simple feature: Their shoots are triangular. Most are found in wetlands and some grow unique seed heads liked the spiked balls of this species. Blissfield Michigan, 19 Oct 2009.

Lest you think broadleaf plants are the only seed dispersal cheaters, here’s Gahnia clarkei (📷: Greg Tasney CCCBYSA4). It’s a sedge that produces shiny, hard fruits that frugivorous birds cannot digest. #Cyperaceae #dispersal #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

A Dragonfly rests on top of stem of a Scirpus or Woolgrass that has yellow blooms. Behind is the lake with the reflection of the clouds in sky above. Scirpus is a genus of grass-like plants, commonly known as bulrushes or woolgrass, belonging to the sedge family (Cyperaceae). They are rhizomatous perennials with triangular stems and grass-like leaves, typically found in wetlands, marshes, and along water edges, and are known for their distinctive, often woolly-looking, brown or greenish flower/seed heads. Some species, like Scirpus cyperinus (woolgrass), are valuable for wetland restoration.

Found a nice population of 200+ Carex x elytroides today. I didn't find C. nigra yet but C. acuta was also abuntant.

The pantropical genus Mapania is associated with forest understorey, yet its evolutionary history & species delimitation are poorly known. Here, DNA sequence data was used to change this, highlighting the need for further research to better protect this genus! 🌍 🧪 👇

Two species of one of the lesser known genera of the Cyperaceae family: Isolepis. Both species are discrete, delicate and really beautiful when looked at closely.

For 1 week we have been at the Smithsonian NMNH in DC with iSedge project funded by @cetaf.bsky.social. We checked the entire Cyperaceae collection and set a loan of >700 species. That will boost our website www.cyperaceae.org with detailed pics of taxonomically relevant structures. Stay tuned!
