[Carex petricosa var. misandroides, known historically from limestone habitats in wNfld. (Bouchard et al., 1991), was relocated at Goose Arm, Bay of Islands, wNfld., by the NFRPP in 2000 (Djan-Chékar et al. 2004). See Ball & Zoladz (1994) for a discussion of C. petricosa and C. misandroides. The more recent status report (Maunder 2008) summarized the current status of C. petricosa in Nfld.]
