| Publ. & Syn. | Molau & D.F. Murray, Symb. Bot. Upsal. 31, 3: 38 (1996). - Pedicularis sudetica subsp. arctoeuropaea Hultén, Svensk Bot. Tidskr. 55: 202 (1961). Holotype (S): European Russia: the Murman area, Triostrova, 20. July 1927, leg. E. Hultén. |
| Notes | Elven: Hultén (1961, 1971a) restricted subsp. arctoeuropaea to northern European Russia and northwesternmost Siberia, largely sympatric with subsp. novaiae-zemliae. Molau and Murray (1996) extended it throughout all of northern Eurasia and northwestern North America. Ivanina: Molau and Murray (1996) drew an entirely different area of distribution for subsp. arctoeuropaea [Pedicularis arctoeuropaea] compared with Hultén (1961) and Ivanina (1980b). It can be explained by their inclusion of P. sudetica subsp. interioroides var. villosula Ivanina & Jurtz. However, our further investigations have shown that this taxon belongs to P. sudetica subsp. pacifica, whereas subsp. interioroides var. tomentulosa Ivanina & Jurtz. should be referred to P. sudetica subsp. arctoeuropaea (though it might be a different race). Murray: In our view, P. arctoeuropaea has been overlooked in Siberia, Alaska, and Canada, hence our distribution would of course be entirely different. |
