Notes: Swida alba is uncertain as arctic. Martinenko (1977a) did not map any northern localities in European Russia. Hultén and Fries (1986: map 1379) reported it to approach or reach the Arctic in the eastern Bolshezemelskaya Tundra and/or Polar Ural. Vlasova (1996) did not report arctic Siberian occurrence. We accept this species for the Borderline Arctic.
