Notes
In many respects intermediate between subsp. melanospermus and C. brevifolius. From the former it can be distinguished by the usually shorter stems, the fairly developed leaf-blades, and the different shape of spikelets and nuts; from the latter by its much stouter stems, relatively smaller leaf- blades, larger spikelets and nuts, and triandrous flowers.
