Notes: Sennikov and Elven: There is probably only one northern species of Stenotheca, which means synonymization of the names S. gracilis and S. tristis. Hultén (1950) reported Hieracium gracile from the Borderline Arctic in southwestern Alaska as H. gracile var. alaskanum. No combination for "gracilis" within Stenotheca has been found. Stenotheca tristis reaches the Arctic in Alaska and approaches in the Great Bear Lake area in the Northwest Territories, see Porsild and Cody (1980).
