Publ. & Syn. | Hultén, Svensk Bot. Tidskr. 53: 536 (1959). - Dryas integrifolia var. sylvatica Hultén, Svensk Bot. Tidskr. 30: 527 (1936). Holotype (S): Alaska: Circle, open woods, 19.

Notes | Elven and Murray: Yurtsev (PAF proposal) did not accept this northwestern North American race. It differs from subsp. integrifolia in several characters, occurs in different (drier and often more base-rich) sites but sometimes locally co-occurs, and occupies a range of its own, mainly in non-glaciated and now forested parts of Alaska and the Yukon Territory. Intermediates towards subsp. integrifolia are frequent but not to a degree that obscures the distinctness of the subspecies. |
