NotesElven and Solstad: The Wrangel Island plant, which we studied in the field in 2005, is well different from mainland Chukotkan and Alaskan Puccinellia wrightii s. str. At least superficially it resembles the Canadian Banks Island plant included below. Subspecific treatment is applied here but specific treatment is an alternative.
