Leaves shallowly emarginate to bilobed (not more than 2/5 of leaf length) into equal to unequal lobes. Underleaves absent (present in Nardia not treated here). Androecia intercalary, stalk biseriate. Perianth well developed to reduced or totally absent. Perigynium well developed to absent (and then perianth wanting or strongly reduced). Elaters with 2-4 spirals.
