Identification comments
CJR: Doubt this ID (albicans). Might be the same thing as 3790 (cf peckii). Similar in general look to the neighboring cf communis plants (erect culms, cespitose), but smaller (leaves, culms) and with strong red colour in the pistilate scales. And it has some intermediate-length fertile culms (shorter than the leaves).
