Distribution map. Distribution of A. svalbardicum along three transects on the Gåsebu ridge with snow depth and host plant phenology. Map shows the snow depths measured in April 2009 (blue circles), plant phenology recorded in August 2009 (0: No bud visible; 1: Stamens visible; 2: Petals senescing; 3: Seed head visible above petals; 4: Seed head untwisting; 5: Seed head twisting), and site occupancy recorded in August 2009 (Red triangles: occupied patches; Crosses: empty patches) in transects 6, 7 and 03.
