Spikelets dark red brown, ovoid, (4-)5-6 mm, apex acute; fertile scales ovate, mostly 4-4.5 mm, apex excurved cuspidate. Flowers: bristles 12, reaching to or slightly beyond tubercle tip, antrorsely barbellate. Fruits 1-2 per spikelet, 3-3.5(-3.7) mm; body dark brown with paler center, dull, broadly ellipsoid-lenticular, 2-2.5 × 1.8-2 mm, smooth, margins flowing to tubercle; tubercle flat, concavely triangular, 0.7-1(-1.2) mm.
