Have you identified it yourself?


Yes.


I am sorry, I am not familiar with the genus Scleria. Anyway, according to some photos on the net of Scleria levis the name seems to be correct.


… has suggested that it could be Scleria terrestris (L.) Fassett.


What do you suggest out of the two?


Not sure.
