| Astragalus agrestis Douglas ex G. Don | |
| Publ. & Syn. | Hook., Trans. Linn. Soc. London 23: 323 (1862). Holotype (K): Alaska: Eschscholtz Bay, in Kotzebue's Sound, 1910, leg. Seeman. |
| Notes | Astragalus agrestis is present in the Borderline Arctic on Hudson Bay (Porsild and Cody 1980). Scoggan (1978c) reported it from Churchill River and York Factory in Manitoba. Astragalus dasyglottis Fisch. ex DC., Prodr. 2: 282 (1825), non Pall. (1800), has been considered synonymous with A. agrestis. Astragalus agrestis is assumed to be restricted to western North America, whereas De Candolle described A. dasyglottis from "Sibiria Altaica". The two names are probably not synonymous. |
