The following subspecies are currently accepted: [2]
Dulichium is a monotypic genus of sedge containing the single species Dulichium arundinaceum, which is known by the common name threeway sedge. This is an aquatic or semi-aquatic plant of the lakes, streams, and ponds of the United States and Canada. It has a wide distribution across the two countries, though noticeably absent from the Dakotas and from the Southwestern Deserts.
Carex pilulifera, the pill sedge, is a European species of sedge found in acid heaths, woods and grassland from Macaronesia to Scandinavia. It grows up to 30 cm (12 in) tall, with 2–4 female spikes and 1 male spike in an inflorescence. These stalks bend as the seeds ripen, and the seeds are collected and dispersed by ants of the species Myrmica ruginodis.
Carex banksii is a species of flowering plant in the sedge family, Cyperaceae. Carex banksii is native to South America and was first formally named by Francis Boott in 1839.
Carex gunniana is an Australia species of sedge that was first described in 1845 by Boott in the Proceedings of the Linnean Society of London. It is native to eastern Australia and Tasmania.
Carex lanceolata is a species of sedge, native to the eastern half of China, Mongolia, eastern Siberia, Korea, Sakhalin, and Japan. Its seeds are dispersed by ants.
Carex morrowii, the kan suge, Morrow's sedge, Japanese grass sedge or Japanese sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the family Cyperaceae. It is native to central and southern Japan, and has been introduced to Belgium, Denmark and Austria.
Carex swanii, known as Swan's sedge or downy green sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the family Cyperaceae. It is native to eastern North America.

Carex annectens, sometimes called yellow-fruited fox sedge, is a species of sedge native to most of the eastern United States and southeastern Canada. It is common in prairies and high-water table fallow fields. In the Chicago area, its coefficient of conservatism is 3, and in Michigan, it is only 1, indicating its relatively low fidelity to high quality habitats.
Carex crinita, called fringed sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Carex, native to central and eastern Canada and the central and eastern United States. It is the namesake of the Carex crinita species complex.
Carex stipata, variously called the prickly sedge, awl-fruited sedge, awlfruit sedge, owlfruit sedge, swamp sedge, sawbeak sedge, stalk-grain sedge and common fox sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Carex, native to Canada, the United States, China, Korea, Japan, and Far Eastern Russia. It is a wetland obligate.
Carex pediformis is a species of sedge, native to Eurasia, from Eastern Europe to Korea. It is a forest-steppe specialist.
Carex supina, called the weak arctic sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Carex, native to Alaska, western and central Canada, Minnesota, Greenland, central and eastern Europe, the Caucasus region, Central Asia, Siberia, the Himalaya, the Amur region, Manchuria, and Korea. It is often found in association with Festuca altaica and Poa glauca.
Carex breviculmis, called the Asian shortstem sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Carex, native to Asia from the Indian subcontinent to Southeast Asia, China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, north as far as Khabarovsk Krai, and Malesia, New Guinea, Australia, Norfolk Island and New Zealand. It has been introduced to the US state of Mississippi. Typically found in forests, it is quite shade tolerant.
Carex tribuloides, the blunt broom sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Carex, native to the eastern United States, eastern Canada, and Veracruz in Mexico, and introduced in Sweden. It is an important food for soras during their spring migration.
Carex punctata, the dotted sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the Cyperaceae family. It is native to Macaronesia, northwest Africa, southern, central, and northern Europe, and Turkey. Its chromosome number is 2n=68.
Carex laxiculmis, the creeping sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the family Cyperaceae, native to Ontario, Canada, and the central and eastern United States. As with most species of sedge, it prefers to grow in shady, wet areas. Its cultivar 'Hobb', sold under the trade designation Bunny Blue, is available from commercial nurseries.
