Schoenoplectiella hallii (A. Gray) K. Lye. Sharpscale Bulrush. Phen: Jul-Oct. Hab: Pond shores in peaty sands. Dist: It has also been reported for our area by RAB, and is apparently included in our area by C, as Scirpus supinus Linnaeus var. hallii (A. Gray) A. Gray, and by others; at least some of these reports are misidentifications of the similar S. erectus. It is reported for sw. GA by Jones & Coile (1988) and Smith in FNA (2002b).

ID notes: Schoenoplectiella hallii is very similar to S. erecta, differing in having the spikelet scales yellow brown (vs. reddish brown) and achenes concave on the ventral surface (vs. bulging on the ventral surface).
