Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Cyperus scariosus is a perennial herbaceous plant native to Australia and New Guinea. It is very similar to C. pertenuis, which is found in Bangladesh and Myanmar, but is not known from the Indian subcontinent. It was first formally described by the botanist Robert Brown in 1810. It is found in northern, eastern and central Queensland, northern Northern Territory and Western Australia. C. pertenuis was once thought to be a synonym of C. scariosus, but is now considered an independent species. The distributional status of this species or C. pertenuis in Java is unclear.
