|discussion=<p><i>Draba novolympica</i> is the same taxon that C. L. Hitchcock (1941) and R. C. Rollins (1993) called <i>D. paysonii</i> <i></i>var.<i> treleasei</i>, and G. A. Mulligan (2002) called <i>D. paysonii</i>. The two are amply distinct and should be recognized as separate species. <i>Draba novolympica</i> is easily distinguished from <i>D. paysonii</i> by having fruit valves pubescent with 2–6-rayed (occasionally some simple) trichomes 0.05–0.4 mm, sepals 1.5–2.5 mm, petals 2–3.5(–4) × 1.5–2 mm, fruits (2.5–)3–4(–5) × 1.5–3.5 mm, styles 0.2–0.6(–0.8) mm, and ovules 1.2–1.8 × 0.8–1.1 mm. By contrast, <i>D. paysonii</i> has fruit valves pubescent with simple and 2-rayed (some 4- or 5-rayed) trichomes (0.2–)0.4–1 mm, sepals 2.8–3.5 mm, petals (4–)5–6 × (1.5–)2–3 mm, fruits (5–)6–9 × (3–)3.5–5 mm, styles (0.6–)0.8–1.2 mm, and ovules 1.7–2.2 × 1–1.4 mm.</p><!--
--><p>Both R. C. Rollins (1993) and N. H. Holmgren (2005b) indicated that <i>Draba novolympica</i> (as <i>D. paysonii</i> <i></i>var.<i> treleasei</i>) occurs in Alaska and Yukon, but we have not seen any material from there, and it is likely that their records were based on misidentified plants. Previous reports of <i>D. paysonii</i> from Canada (e.g., G. A. Mulligan 1971b) pertain instead to <i>D. novolympica</i>.</p>
