Papaver lapponicum - enlever BC de la répartition canadienne

[FredCoursol]

Bjork (2019)
Similarly to Papaver radicatum, this species name was misapplied in northwestern North
America (Solstad 2009; Elven et al. 2018). In the region, the name P. lapponicum has been applied to
specimens of a variety of dissimilar species. In British Columbia, the name was generally applied to
species that average taller in stature than those that were identified as P. radicatum.

Cependant, dans le même article, il exclut P. radicatum de BC.
The typification of Papaver radicatum (discussed in Elven et al. 2018) clarified the species as
one having a North Atlantic distribution. Even so, no taxonomic question in British Columbia was
fully resolved by the typification, as the name P. radicatum was applied only as a catch-all for any of
the shorter-stature native Papaver except the morphologically highly dissimilar P. pygmaeum and P.
roseoalbum.
