Carex gunniana var. barbata(Boott) Kük.

Carex barbata is a Tasmanian species of sedge that was first formally named by Francis Boott in 1858, in his Illustrations of the genus Carex. [1] [3] A specimen collected in February 1839 by R. C. Gunn is the only known collection of this species. [4] In 1909, it was reclassified as a variety of Carex gunniana , but Kew's Plants of the World Online maintains it as a separate species. [2]
