Carex atrofusca Schkuhr is a small perennial tufted monoecious sedge with separate male and female spikes.
Carex atrofusca Schkuhr is a perennial, loosely tufted cespitose sedge that grows approximately 6 to 30 centimeters tall. It has persistent sheaths that range in color from brown to yellowish brown. Its leaves measure 3–4 millimeters in width, and are roughly half as long as the plant's flowering stems.
