|discussion=<p><i>Draba glabella</i> was reported by J. V. Freudenstein and J. K. Marr (1986) from Michigan, but that record likely was based on plants of <i>D. arabisans</i>, a highly variable species that occurs in that state.</p><!--
--><p><i>Draba glabella</i> is extremely variable in indumentum, number of cauline leaves, fruiting pedicel length, fruit shape and size, style length, and seed number. M. L. Fernald (1934) divided it into five species and three varieties; R. C. Rollins (1993) recognized three species. Of these, G. A. Mulligan (1970, 1976) reduced D. laurentiana to synonymy of <i>D. glabella</i> and treated D. pycnosperma as a variety. Of all the segregates of <i>D. glabella</i>, var. pycnosperma might merit recognition. It is restricted to northwestern Newfoundland and northeastern Quebec, where var. glabella also grows. The main difference between the two varieties is the presence in var. pycnosperma of plump (versus flattened), ovoid to oblong fruits. <i>Draba</i> sornborgeri, recognized by Rollins as a distinct species, is merely a glabrescent form of <i>D. glabella</i>. Because of the tremendous morphological variability, wide distribution, extensive synonymy, and different chromosome numbers, <i>D. glabella</i> will require extensive molecular, cytological, and morphological studies to properly delimit the species and any potential infraspecific taxa.</p><!--
--><p>Some forms of <i>Draba glabella</i> approach both <i>D. borealis</i> and <i>D. praealta</i>, but these can be distinguished by examining the trichomes on the abaxial surfaces of basal leaf blades. In <i>D. glabella</i>, these trichomes are minutely stalked or subsessile and have branched rays. In the other two species, the trichomes have long stalks and the rays are always unbranched.</p><!--
--><p>The Linnaean name <i>Draba</i> hirta was applied to this species previously, and still is in Russia. The name is not typified, and the material at LINN is in bad condition and probably belongs to two species, <i>D. glabella</i> and <i>D. norvegica</i>, as recognized here. A typification of D. hirta may necessitate its re-introduction for this species.</p>
