Dicrostonyx groenlandicus: Comments
Comment:
Status: IUCN - Lower Risk (lc) as D. groenlandicus, D. kilangmiutak, and D. rubricatus
Comment:
Comments: In their broad specific concept, Jarrell and Fredga (1993) viewed all North American taxa, except D. hudsonius, as junior synonyms, including the insular forms exsul and vinogradovi. Morphological, distributional, breeding, chromosomal, and-or molecular evidence, albeit uneven and incomplete, persuades us to maintain D. nelsoni, D. nunatakensis, D. richardsoni, D. unalascensis, and D. vinogradovi as distinct (see those accounts)
