Notes: Vlasova (1993) mapped Stellaria humifusa to reach the Arctic in Siberia in the Ob River estuary only. However, it occurs also in northeastern Taimyr and several places in northeastern Siberia (Matzenko 1971; Hultén and Fries 1986; Sekretareva 2004; own observations in the Lena estuary 2004). In general, the authors of Flora Sibiri seem to have had a restricted sample of material available for mapping their species from arctic Siberia.
