status

 

Rhynchospora croatanensis ,

a new species from the outer Coastal Plain of North Carolina Primary authors:Patrick D. McMillan and Richard J. LeBlond

Known from a single collection in Croatan National Forest, this distinctive member of Rhynchospora sect. Rariflorae (Gale) McMillan adds another species to the endemic-rich flora of the Cape Fear Arch region of the Carolinas ( McMillan 2007). The plant is clearly related to R. rariflora (Michx.) Elliott and R. stenophylla Chapm. but differs from both by several characters of the inflorescence. This plant has been referred to as Rhynchospora sp. 2 in McMillan (2007) and as “ Rhynchospora species 1 ” in LeBlond (2023).
