Juncus articulatus L.
Publ. & Syn.L., Sp. Pl.: 327 (1753). Described from Europe. Type not designated, see Jarvis (2007: 600) for discussion.
NotesEgorova (PAF proposal) reported Juncus articulatus to reach the Arctic in Yana-Kolyma in northeastern Siberia. Kovtonyuk (1987) and Kirschner et al. (2002b) reported and mapped the species as quite southern in Siberia, without any northern occurrence. We suspect that the Yana-Kolyma record is based on misidentification and exclude Siberia. Other races occur in more temperate regions.
