https://fsus.ncbg.unc.edu/main.php?pg=show-taxon-detail.php&lsid=urn:lsid:ncbg.unc.edu:taxon:{284E4496-DE4D-4C39-9D16-C3DFEEAEC248}
Juncus pylaei Laharpe. Subgenus: Agathryon. Section: Juncotypus. Common Rush. Phen: Jun-Sep. Hab: Moist soil, bogs, marshes, swamp forests, margin of streams, ponds, lakes and swamps, low meadows; overlooked and probably more widespread and common than shown. Dist: Throughout eastern North America, south at least to NC and SC. The mapped distribution is unusually speculative, owing to past lumping with Juncus effusus.
ID notes: Similar to J. effusus but with the stems being coarsely and conspicuously ridged much like a fluted column.
Origin/Endemic status: Native
