Formal Taxonomy
Plantae - Anthophyta - Monocotyledoneae - Cyperales - Cyperaceae - Carex - ; Ceska believes the Botanical Code's Preamble 10 (to follow established custom) should prevail, however recognizing that Article 60.1 likely constrains making the spelling correction (even though in 1886 Bailey did not have rules guiding such a correction). Kartesz (1994, 1999) apparently has the necessary spelling, but not the correct authorship. BMacB 3/15/2001.
