| Cyperaceae | Carex barrattii | Barratt's Sedge | Peaty bogs and marshes, especially in depression ponds, depression swamps, and sinkhole ponds, but also in seepage, such as Piedmont boggy streamheads. | CT south to NC (at least formerly), on the Coastal Plain, and disjunct inland in places with many Coastal Plain affinities, as in w. VA (Augusta County), sw. NC (Henderson County, where now apparently extirpated), nw. SC, sc. TN (Coffee and Warren counties), n. GA, and n. AL. Reported for SC by Hill & Horn (1997) and Horn (1999). See Ungberg (2022) for discussion of its occurrence in NC. |

| Cyperaceae | Carex limosa | Mud Sedge | Bogs, swamps, wet meadows, medium to poor fens and bogs. | Circumboreal, south in North America to se. PA (Dauphin County, Rhoads & Klein 1993; Rhoads & Block 2007), NJ, DE (historical), OH, IN, NE, UT, and CA. More commonly northward in a variety of medium to poor peatlands. This inherently northern species of peatland habitats does occur very sparingly southward to portions of our region. It is extirpated from DE and is now apparently extant in only one or a few location(s) each in NJ and OH; but locally abundant and probably S3 in PA (S. Grund, pers. comm., 2023). Carex limosa was likely never legitimately collected from s. IN and is considered S1 in the northern portions of the state (S. Namestnik, pers. comm., 2023). |

| Cyperaceae | Carex paupercula | Boreal Bog Sedge | Sphagnum bogs, boggy swamps. | Circumboreal, south in North America to n. NJ, c. PA, MI, WI, MN, NM, and WA. | |
