The map likely includes records for Glyceria laxa (Scribn.) Scribn., which has been lumped with G. canadensis in many Virginia floristic studies. Critical examination of all Virginia herbarium material of this complex will be needed to produce complete and accurate maps for the two species. See also Comments under Glyceria laxa.
