[The presence of Alchemilla micans in NL is based on a second annotation by J.McNeill, author of the FNA treatment of Alchemilla, of images from St. John's, taken by J.Maunder (pers. comm., J.McNeill to J.Maunder, Dec. 2013). Several reports of Alchemilla from the Avalon Peninsula were previously identified as A. vulgaris L., which is now considered to be an aggregate species composed of several apomictic species (agamospecies), including A. acutiloba, A. micans, and A. monticola.]
