[Scoggan (1978) reports that a specimen of Agrostis canina from Cartwright had been identified by Malte (CAN), but another Labrador report (St. John, 1922) is referred to A. (borealis) mertensii. Agrostis canina should probably be considered of doubtful occurrence in Labrador, as the specimen is not clearly identified (L. Brouillet, pers. comm., Nov. 2016). Verification of the Labrador report is required.]
