|discussion=<p><i>Primula egaliksensis</i> is distinguished by its relatively few-flowered inflorescence of homostylous flowers; violet (forma violacea Fernald) and white corollas are equally common and sometimes occur together within populations. Early treatments of the arctic flora confused <i>P. egaliksensis</i> with other species, notably <i>P. stricta</i>. The names P. farinosa var. groenlandica Pax and P. sibirica in the sense of Hooker (not Jacquin) refer in part to <i>P. egaliksensis</i>.</p><!--
--><p>Morphologic and genetic evidence (A. Guggisberg et al. 2006) indicates that <i>Primula egaliksensis</i> is a hybrid between sects. Aleuritia and Armerina, with probable parents being <i>P. nutans</i> and <i>P. mistassinica</i> or an ancestral form of that species. The rounded, petiolate leaves and narrow capsules ally it strongly to sect. Armerina, and it has traditionally been placed in that section. <i>Primula egaliksensis</i> has frequently been confused with <i>P. nutans</i>; it differs in its smaller, homostylous flowers and the absence of auriculate bracts.</p>
