Notes: Petrovsky: Draba prozorovskii is probably a marginal form of D. juvenilis in the Taimyr area where D. juvenilis s. str. is not known.

Elven and Petrovsky: Asian (LE, O) and North American (ALA, O) plants of, respectively, D. juvenilis and D. longipes are very similar morphologically (see Berkutenko 1979), especially in their regularly cruciform hairs (very long-stalked with 3-4 horizontal branches). The synonymization is still provisional but accepted by Al-Shehbaz et al. (2010a).
