[Recent observations of Tephroseris palustris from Battle Harbour Natl. Historic Site: J. Maunder in 2003, and S.J. Meades, M. Burzynski, and A. Marceau in 2004, combine with three historic reports of T. palustris, as Senecio congestus, from seLab. (Rev. Waghorne, Bolster Rocks and Seal Island, 1892) and (E. Abbe, Battle Harbour, 1931) to confirm the long-term existence of this rare species in seLabrador.]
