| Therorhodion glandulosum Standl. ex Small | |
| Publ. & Syn. | Small, N. Amer. Fl. 29: 45 (1914). Holotype (US): Alaska: Imuruk Basin, Kigluaik Mountains, Oogluk Bay, leg. Walpole 1725. - Rhododendron camtschaticum subsp. glandulosum (Standl. ex Small) Hultén, Fl. Kamtchatka 4: 14 (1930). |
| Chromosomes | (1) 26 (2x). - Far East (N), Alaska. - Zhukova (1980); Johnson and Packer (1968). (2) 52 (4x). - Far East (N), Canada, Greenland. - At least five reports. The Johnson and Packer (1968) diploid chromosome count from northwestern Alaska (for Ledum palustre s. lat.) was entered by Löve and Löve (1975a) as L. groenlandicum, probably because it did not fit with the other counts of L. palustre. Alaskan plants of the two species are not easily confused and Rhododendron groenlandicum is not known as far west as the area in question (Ogotoruk Creek, see Hultén 1968a). A voucher should be checked before acceptance. However, the report is made more probable by a report of a diploid from South Chukotka (Zhukova 1980). |
