O. E. Schulz (1927) recognized five varieties within Draba pauciflora, of which four were listed from North America. Schulz’s concept of D. pauciflora encompassed multiple taxa that we recognize as separate species, including D. micropetala and D. subcapitata. C. L. Hitchcock (1941) and R. C. Rollins (1993) did not mention D. pauciflora; the latter (and G. A. Mulligan 1974b) referred the North American material to D. adamsii.

Of conservation concern. Draba aleutica is known in the flora area from the Aleutian Islands (e.g., Atka, Attu) and on the Pribilov Islands (St. Paul), as well as in the Alaskan Peninsula near Ugashik. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
