Morphological and chromosomal evidence (M. D. Windham, unpubl.) suggests that Draba praealta may be an allopolyploid originating through hybridization between D. albertina and D. cana. Both R. C. Rollins (1993) and N. H. Holmgren (2005b) placed D. lonchocarpa var. dasycarpa in the synonymy of D. lonchocarpa. G. A. Mulligan (1974) indicated that the type of var. dasycarpa does not belong to that species and he correctly annotated its isotype (Macoun 64454, CAN) as D. praealta. Mulligan (1976) and Rollins indicated that D. praealta occurs in Alaska, but we have not seen unequivocal material from the state. We have not seen the material on which A. E. Katenin and V. V. Petrovsky (1995) based their record from the Russian Far East. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Draba maguirei is known from the Bear River Range in Cache County. Despite this very narrow distribution, the species includes two ploidy levels (diploid and tetraploid) that are morphologically and ecologically distinct (M. D. Windham, unpubl.).
