Abstract

Pycreus decumbens, described from Brazil, is noted as a synonym of the Old World species, Cyperus mundtii; a new name is provided for the eastern Brazilian Cyperus palustris; C. affinis is determined to be the correct name for Cyperus comosus (a relative of C. giganteus) and C. spicigerus is noted as an older name for C. schoenomorphus.
