Cherleria yukonensis (Yukon stitchwort)

Synonyms: Arenaria laricifolia; Lidia yukonensis (homotypic); Minuartia yukonensis (homotypic)

Wikipedia Abstract

Minuartia yukonensis, the Yukon sandwort or Yukon stitchwort, is a plant species native to Yukon and Northwest Territories of Canada, as well as Alaska, and The Russian Far East. Flora of North America and some other publications also report it from British Columbia, but more recent work shows those collections to have been misidentified. Minuartia yukonensis grows in dry, rocky meadows at elevations less than 1000 m.
