Carex enneastachya C.B.Clarke, Bull. Misc. Inform. Kew, Addit. Ser. View in CoL 8: 70. 1908.

Holotype: COLOMBIA [“Columbia”], Jameson 2 ( K barcode 000584607 digital image!).

Material studied. PERU. Áncash: Recuay, Laguna de Querococha , 4050 m, 23 May 1970, A. López & A. Sagàstegui 7516 ( HUT) . Cajamarca: Hualgayoc, entre Cajamarca y Hualgayoc , 3750 m, 16 Nov 1974, I. Sánchez Vega & J. Sánchez Vega 1339 ( CPUN-670 ) .

Notes: Carex enneastachya is another species of the section Phacocystis new for the Peruvian flora. Its presence in Peru has geographical sense since this species had already been recorded in Ecuador and Bolivia (Govaerts et al. c2019). In contrast with the materials that we cited above under C. brehmeri , these specimens are tall plants with elongated stems and several cylindrical spikes, and therefore easily identified as C. enneastachya .
