|discussion=<p>The proper status of the American plants is not clear. Originally described as <i>Habenaria</i> straminea Fernald, the plants of North America, Iceland, and the Faeroe Islands were distinguished by a more yellowish and slightly larger perianth than the common European form. These seemingly minor differences are inconsistent, however, and the plants have generally been treated as only infraspecifically distinct. Because of the occurrence of plants in northern and western Scandinavia, E. Hultén (1958) treated them as Leucorchis albida var. subalpina, and D. M. Moore (1980) treated them as <i>Pseudorchis albida </i>subsp.<i> straminea</i>. Recently, however, L.-G. Reinhammer (1995) presented evidence supporting the recognition of two species. His sample, limited to western Scandinavia and a single Icelandic site, may not be representative of American plants, and our populations should be studied accordingly.</p>
