Taxonomic Comments

This record represents the narrow concept of Draba stenoloba not including D. stenoloba var. ramosa, following FNA (vol. 7, 2010). FNA (vol. 7, 2010) includes D. stenoloba var. ramosa in D. albertina. In contrast, Kartesz (1994) recognized two varieties in Draba stenoloba, D. stenoloba var. ramosa and D. stenoloba var. stenoloba.
