editorial
NZ plants of M. laxa correspond to subsp. cespitosa (Schultz) Nordh., sometimes accorded specific rank as M. cespitosa Schultz.; Flora Europaea says M. laxa subsp. laxa is North American, while subspp. cespitosa and baltica are in Europe. NZ Myosotis laxa specimens are presumably introduced from Europe or at least matches the characters of subsp. cespitosa.
