| Stellaria longipes subspecies taxon edwardsii | |
| Publ. & Syn. | ?Stellaria ciliatosepala Trautv., Phaenog. Pfl. Hochnord.: 52 (1847). Described from the Taimyr River from 74N to the mouth (Siberia). Type in LE. |
| Notes | Elven and Petrovsky: We tentatively synonymize the North American name Stellaria edwardsii and the Eurasian name S. ciliatosepala. Hultén (1943a) only mentioned the name S. edwardsii in synonymy of S. ciliatosepala var. arctica. Löve's concept of S. edwardsii was collective and included S. ciliatosepala. The question mark for Norway is due to Chater and Heywood (1993) who accepted this species from Svalbard. As far as we know, only S. crassipes is present in Svalbard (Often 1989). |
| Chromosomes | 36-104 (3x-8x). - Löve and Löve (1975a) referred about six different numbers under the names S. edwardsii and S. ciliatosepala, one of 2n = ca. 52 from North America and the remaining of 2n = 72-104 from European Russia and Siberia. |
