Notes: Petrovsky and Elven: Draba ochroleuca is a distinct southern Siberian and central Asian species but there are doubts about all reports from the Arctic. The material from Taimyr annotated under this name in MHA, inspected by Elven in 2003, is not that species but perhaps D. glacialis Adams. Specimens assigned to this species from East Chukotka (Berkutenko 1988) have not been investigated. A re-inspection of all arctic vouchers is needed before this species can be accepted from the Arctic.
