Dear Santhan Ji, The KEY, to identify *C. paniceus* and *C. cyperoides,* is different in the book "Bengal Plants" and in FBI, which does not tally with what you have provided here. I have one post https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/indiantreepix/ylL6rl9fxko. KEW has several herbaria - - *C. paniceus <http://keys.trin.org.au/key-server/data/0e0f0504-0103-430d-8004-060d07080d04/media/Html/taxon/Cyperus_paniceus.htm>* (spike not globose, spikelet one flowered) 1. *http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/detailsQuery.do?barcode=K000592565 <http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/detailsQuery.do?barcode=K000592565> * 2. http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/detailsQuery.do?barcode=K000592564 - *C. cyperoides* (spike not always oblong? spikelet 1 to 3 flowered) 1. http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/detailsQuery.do?barcode=K000362749 2. http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/detailsQuery.do?barcode=K000321389 - *C. clarkei* (I do not know, as per FBI stem 3-8 inch....since your spikes are subcapitate or with short rays it maybe...) 1. http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/detailsQuery.do?barcode=K000290886 2. http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/detailsQuery.do?barcode=K000592556 As for "glumes", "wing", "spikelets", "florets"..... these are all Greek to me and I have never tried to examine them under microscope, for I know I won't understand.
