(Parents: Carex aquatilis var. aquatilis × Carex gynandra)

[The type of Carex ×crinitoides Lepage is from Grand Falls, cNfld. In some soures, Carex ×crinitoides is described as a hybrid of Carex aquatilis and C. crinita, but the original publication did not indicate which variety of C. crinita is involved in the cross (var. crinita or var. gynandra). Since only Carex crinita var. gynandra (now known as Carex gynandra) is known from Nfld., the parentage has been corrected to C. aquatilis var. aquatilis × C. gynandra.]
