Carex scita Maxim. in Bull. Acad. Sci. Pétersb. 31: 115 (1886).

Accepted name: Carex scita Maxim. var. scita [Japanese name: Miyama-ashiboso-suge]

Japonia , Nippon, ad rivulos, 1864, Tschonoski [ LE 01012388] ( Fig. 50 , KPM-NX0001924). Novosselova (2004) designated this specimen as the lectotype, with two isolectotypes [ LE 01012386] ( Fig. 51, KPM-NX0001327), [ LE 01012387] ( Fig. 52 , KPM-NX0001328) .

Although the specimen does not include any locality names of the Kanagawa Prefecture, it is listed here because the specimen collected in Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture, according to the protologue as follows: “ Nippon media, ad rivulos, verosimiliter in montibus Hakone (Tschonoski frf.).” However, Takahashi et al. (2020) suggest that the type locality is more likely to be prov. Shinano (Nagano Prefecture) .
