''Dulichium'' is a monotypic genus of sedge containing the single species ''Dulichium arundinaceum'', which is known by the common name threeway sedge. This is an aquatic or semi-aquatic plant of the lakes, streams, and ponds of the United States and Canada It has a wide distribution across the two countries, though noticeably absent from the Dakotas and from the Southwestern Deserts.〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families )〕〔(Flora of North America, Vol. 23 Page 198, ''Dulichium'' Persoon, Syn.

Indiana Academy of Sciences.〕 ''Dulichium arundinaceum'' has a thick rhizome system and grows to heights approaching a meter. It is reminiscent of bamboo in appearance when new, growing bright green erect stalks in large, grassy stands. Stems are round to slightly triangular in cross-section (though not nearly as angularly triangular as in Cyperus or Carex), and hollow. The leaves are in three ranks along the stem when seen from above (thus the common name "threeway sedge"), with sheaths along the stems, and the inflorescence grows from the leaf axilla. The spikelets are generally lance-shaped and one to three centimeters long when ripe.〔〔(Department of Ecology, State of Washington, shoreline plants, ''Dulichium arundinaceum'' (L.)
