Carex bonanzensis, the Yukon sedge, or the bonanza sedge, is a species of sedge in the family Cyperaceae.[1] It was described by Nathaniel Lord Britton in 1901.[2]

Description

Carex bonanzensis on average reaches a height of 20-50 cm (7.87-19.68 inches), with red tinged-pale brown leaves at 10-25 cm (3.93-9.84 inches) long. Flowers are a brown-orange color. Fruiting occurs June through August, at semi-freezing temperatures within the Subarctic region, and warmer temperatures within the south.[3]

Distribution and habitat

Carex bonanzensis is native to parts of Siberia and other sections of the Subarctic region, primarily within far north Canada, mid-Russia, and far northeastern Russia.[2] It grows at elevations of 50-900 m, which are referred to as "lowlands".[3]

Conservation

Carex bonanzensis is fairly common throughout its vast range, hence being mostly unscathed by average human and non-human threats. The IUCN Red List has not officially evaluated the species yet, but may do so in the future.[3]

Uses

Carex bonzanensis has no recorded uses, although there may have been native uses before the species initial discovery; most likely being used by Subarctic tribes.[3]
