Cyperus pseudovegetus is a species of sedge that is found in southeastern parts of the United States of America, from Texas in the west, eastwards to the Atlantic Ocean. The species was first formally described by the botanist Ernst Gottlieb von Steudel in 1854.

A DNA barcode is a short, standardised stretch of genes that works like a fingerprint — enough to tell one species from another. Below is the molecular trace Cyperus pseudovegetus has left across the world's sequence archives.

09Environmental DNA1 detections
Where the DNA of Cyperus pseudovegetus was picked up in samples of water, soil or air — nobody saw the organism, only its DNA left behind. A trace is a clue that the species was near, not a confirmed sighting.

How strong is each trace?
DNA read depthRead counts were not reported for this species — the map shows presence only, not how strong each trace was.
How to read this: each dot is one detection of this species' DNA in an environmental sample. The confidence meter weighs how many independent studies and places back up the signal — one detection in one study is a hint; many across several studies is solid. Records dated before 2008 (when eDNA methods began) are treated as likely mislabeled and left off the map.
