Abstract

Keys and distributional maps are provided for 9 genera and 43 species of Cyperaceae documented from Nebraska (excluding Carex). Two species-Eleocharis elliptica and Fimbristylis vahlii-are newly reported for the State, while seven species attributed to the State in the Flora of the Great Plains (Great Plains Flora Association, 1986)-Eleocharis compressa, E. verrucosa, E. wolfii, E. xyridiformis, Scirpus georgianus, S. smithii, and S. torreyi-are deleted based on re-identifications, lack of specimen evidence, or specimens of doubtful provenance in the State. Notes on local systematic problems within the family are also included.
