Claytonia arctica, the Arctic spring beauty, is a species of flowering plant native to Siberia including the Taimyr Peninsula and Wrangel Island and eastward to the Aleutians and Bering Sea islands of Alaska.[2] A plant species of the circumpolar Arctic, it has been confused with Claytonia sarmentosa and C. scammaniana.[3] A taxonomic revision including a lectotypification of Claytonia arctica was published in 2006.[4]
