Notes: Hultén (1971b) mapped Rumex pseudonatronatus from arctic or near arctic localities in the Murman area but it has not been accepted from there by Russian sources. Vouchers behind these records may be deposited in Finnish or Swedish herbaria. It has been mapped from the Kanin Peninsula (Hultén and Fries 1986) and from the Malozemelskaya and Bolshezemelskaya tundras (Martinenko 1976a; Hultén and Fries 1986). Tzvelev (in comment) assumed that it is adventive and not established in these areas. However, we include it as probably native due to the many occurrences mapped by Hultén and Fries (1986).
