Carex disticha |
Carex disticha is a Eurasian species of sedge known as the brown sedge [1] or, in North America, tworank sedge. [2]
Carex disticha is native to parts of Northern and Western Europe, where it grows in moist spots in a number of habitat types, and it has been introduced to the Great Lakes region of southern Canada. [3] In its native range, this species is often associated with the Juncus subnodulosus–Cirsium palustre fen-meadow habitat. [4] Carex disticha has also been introduced to Canada, where it is known from only two sites, in Ontario and Quebec. [3] [5]
