Montia bostockii, known by the common name Bostock's minerslettuce, is a species in the genus Montia found in Alaska and northwestern Canada.[2]
Description
Montia bostockii is a perennial forb that flowers in the early summer.[2] It is closely related to Montia vassilievii, and the taxa are sometimes treated synonymously.[3] It was once considered a candidate for protection through the Endangered Species Act, but it was found to be more abundant and widespread than thought previously.[4]
