114 SPECIES PLANTARUM — FLORA OF THE WORLD (2002) Chukotka, E coast of Chaynskaya Guba, V.Petrovskiy & P.Zhukova 434 (LE, 2n=24); Chukotka, Bezimyannyi, 3 Aug 1974, V.Petrovskyi et al. (LE, 2n=36). KHABAROVSK: Sofiisk, Bureika R., 1500 m, 10 Jul 1978, A.Nechaev (NS, PRA). Populations from Kamchatka and the Kuriles have an intermediate appearance between subsp. frigida and subsp. sibirica. In addition, plants close <strong>to</strong> the type subspecies are found in the southern part of the range of subsp. sibirica. 59d. <strong>Luzula</strong> multiflora subsp. snogerupii Kirschner, Ann.

Basal leaves ±densely <strong>to</strong> subsparsely ciliate, 2.2–2.8 (–3.5) mm wide. Cauline leaves usually 2–3. Upper cauline leaves 4.0–8.5 cm long, 1.5–2.2 (–2.5) mm wide. Lower bract usually 1.7–4.3 (–5.5) cm long, shorter than or over<strong>to</strong>pping inflorescence, often reddish. Inflorescence with pedunculate clusters; peduncles mostly straight, some flexuose, usually at least one in a plant recurved, sometimes with secondary branches, smooth. Clusters 5–9 (–18); subsessile clusters 1–2, ellipsoidal-ovoid <strong>to</strong> ovoid, rarely hemispherical; flowers in pedunculate clusters 5–8 (–10); bractlets 1.5–1.8 mm long, ciliate.
