Minuartia stricta (Sw.) Hiern
Publ. & Syn.Arenaria stricta var. uliginosa (Schleich. ex Lam. & DC.) B. Boivin, Naturaliste Canad. 93: 642 (1966). - Arenaria uliginosa Schleich. ex Lam. & DC., Fl. Franç., éd. 3, 3/4: 786 (1805). Described from the Alps and Jura in the central European mountains.
Chromosomes30 (2x, x = 15). - Europe, Siberia (N), Canada. - At least five reports.
Not included: Reports of 2n = 22 from the British Isles (Blackburn and Morton 1957) and of 2n = 26 from northeastern Greenland, Chukotka, and western U.S.A. (Jørgensen et al. 1958; Zhukova 1967a; Löve et al. 1971). Vouchers behind these counts should be inspected before these numbers are accepted. The Greenland record of 2n = 26 (rather n = 13) may be due to technical problems (Jørgensen et al. 1958: 59). Löve and Löve (1975a) omitted reports of other numbers than 2n = 30, including their own of 2n = 26 from western U.S.A. (Löve et al. 1971). Confusion with glabrous M. rubella ("propinqua") is possible.
