Taraxacum korjakorum Kharkevich & Tzvelev (1978: 840) View in CoL

Type:—[ RUSSIA, Kamchatka] Koryak. nats. okr., Olyutorskiy raion, yuzhnoe podnozh’e g. Ledyanoy (mezhdurech’e Levoy Yaelvayama i Achayvayama ) [Koryak National Okrug, Olyutorskiy District, southern foot of Mt. Ledyanaya, between rivers Levyy Yaelvayam and Achayvayam], 12 Jul 1976, M. Gorshkov & A. Kozhevnikov ( LE, no. det. 6085, holotype) .

In spite of the absence of ripe achenes, T. korjakorum may be relatively certainly referred to T. sect. Arctica. The small, narrow involucre with very few, ovate outer phyllaries with a broad, membranous border are decisive (see also Kirschner et al. 2022b).
