    1. Reviewed by Diana Jolles    Mar 29, 2014

    Action: changed name from "Pyrola minor" to "Pyrola dentata "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "Glaucous-leaved species with leathery leaves, often growing in more xeric conditions, unlike P. minor. Pyrola dentata also produces these congested rosettes of leaves-- flowers will be more similar in appearance to P. picta than to P. minor with regard to style and stamen lengths, morphology."
