Carex alba Scopoli, syn.: Carex ajanensis Vorosch, Carex inclusa Turcz.ex Boott, Carex argentea J.F. Gmel.White Sedge, DE: Weie SeggeSlo.: beli aDat.: May 31. 2011Lat.: 46.36070 Long.: 13.70105Code: Bot_516/2011_IMG5084Habitat: upper, west edge of an alpine pasture surrounded by mixed wood (Fagus sylvatica, Picea abies, Ostrya carpinifolia dominant trees), spreading also somewhat into the wood; slightly inclined mountain slope, southeast aspect; calcareous, colluvial, skeletal ground; mostly in shade; dry and relatively warm place; elevation 630 m (2.070 feet); average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, alpine phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil.Place: Lower Trenta valley, between villages Soa and Trenta, Na Melu place, near cottage Trenta 2b, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC. Comment: Carex alba is a beautiful sedge and relatively easy to recognized among very numerous taxa in the genus Carex. In the uppermost elongated inflorescence, the flowers at the bottom are male. All others above them and on all other inflorescences lower on the flower stalk are female. These pictures show its habit when it is in fruit but in not yet fully ripe state. When fully developed, perigynia (female flower fruits) become shiny dark brown, almost black. In the spring, when in bloom, the plants look quite differently having dominant whitish looking inflorescences. Hence its species name in several languages namely 'white'. It is an evergreen plant, many times forming freshly green, soft mats of considerable size.It can be found in most of European countries, however, mitigating most southern and most northern ones. To the east it is spread to Russian Far East regions.Ref.:(1) J. Koopman, Carex Europaea, The genus Carex L. (Cyperaceae) in Europa,1, Margraf Publ. (2011), p 38 and p 582.(2) M.A. Fischer, W.

As has also been reported for the species in the artic, Carex aquatilis var. aquatils is remarkably showing above-ground (ice level here) green culm growth consistently of some 8 cm to 10 cm during winter months. This winter season has produced many cold nights and ample snowfall. This is a very restricted population growing in roughly a 50 sq. meter area in shallow water at the edge of a pond, consisting of 150 to 200 plants. The species was first noticed here in 2015. This is a valley, not midmontane or higher, location. All of the floras of the Intermountain West and also in Arizona reference occurrences of this species only at much higher elevations; but in fact it has been known historically in our area from valley locations as low or lower than this one, a fact that has to date been missed by local taxonomists.Whether this particular location involves introduced plants is subject to speculation. On the one hand, the pond is manmade and some large rocks were moved in around it when it was constructed, and some seed could have accidentally been introduced. There are however no records indicating it was intentionally planted. And, this is in an abandoned channel of Big Cottonwood Creek, and there are nearby springs and at least some natural freshwater marsh areas, and given the types of species that occur here and have been found to date, it is possible that it is a native survivor.January 30, 2016, Salt Lake County, Utah, elev. 4,330 ft.

UkiCyperaceae (Sedge family)Indigenous to the Hawaiian Islands (all the main islands except Niihau and Kahoolawe)Kaala, OahuCloseup
www.flickr.com/photos/dweickhoff/9110972228/in/datetaken-...Captain Cook's artist John Webber sketched Hawaiian canoe paddlers wearing gourd masks. These masks were decorated with strips of kapa (tapa) that hung down and some are quite certain that the crest resembling feathers was uki (Cladium spp.). This may have been Cladium jamaicense or an another indigenous species now referred to as Machaerina angustifolia [syn. Cladium angustifolia].EtymologyThe generic name Machaerina is derived from the Latin machaera, a bent dagger or sword, and -ina, a feminine suffix, which in this case is diminutive, referring to the shape of the leaves of some species.The specific name angustifolia [angustifolius] means "narrow leaved."
