Discussion
G. Halliday and A. O. Chater (1969) recognized two well-defined varieties in the subspecies: var. glareosa and var. amphigena. Variety amphigena, which is the overwhelmingly dominating type in North America, has pale brown to whitish, broadly elliptic-obovate perigynia (1.5–2.5 × 1.3–1.5 mm) contracting abruptly into a minute beak. Variety glareosa often has lanceolate, light brown to whitish, and sometimes distinctly ribbed perigynia more than 2.6 times as long as wide and 2.5–3.5 × 1–1.5 mm in size. According to G. Halliday and A. O. Chater (1969), it is an amphi-Atlantic plant. It occurs in Greenland and a few places in eastern Canada, and it is relatively common in Fennoscandia (Finland and Scandinavia) and northwestern Russia. In many places it grades to the var. amphigena.
