Discussion

Subspecies phaeocephalum occurs along the low Arctic shore (both continental and insular) from Alaska to Quebec; it does not penetrate north into the Canadian Arctic Archipelago; it does not reach Labrador; it is present in Greenland. If treated as a species, the name T. hookeri Schultz-Bipontinus has priority (N. N. Tzvelev 2002b).
