Treated historically in our floras as Habenaria hyperborea (which has since been synonymized under Platanthera hyperborea (Linnaeus) Lindley). The North American plants have been split intos Platanthera aquilonis and Platanthera huronensis. The North American species is apparently diploid compared to the tetraploid P. hyberborea. The differences between "aquilonis" and "huronensis" are somewhat arcane and without flowers or seeing plants here previously in flower, an ID might not be possible. The leaves and congested inflorescence might suggest "huronensis" but that would still be wrong.Yet: this is neither. Most likely this is Platanthera tescamnis.August 18, 2007, Red Butte Canyon, Salt Lake County, Utah
