    1. Reviewed by Diana Jolles    Mar 29, 2014

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

    Reviewer's comments:
         "These leaves and inflorescence belong to Pyrola dentata. This glaucous-leaved species has flowers that are more similar to P. picta. When the flowers are open, you will see that the plants in this photo have long, curved styles, and long, narrow anthers with a constriction right around the anther pores."
