Notes

Described from the Altai Mts in southern Siberia and the nearby Tarbagatay Mts in eastern Kazakhstan. Western populations (west of the Ob-Irtysh drainage) are accepted by many Russian botanists as Larix sukaczewii nom. inval. (or Larix sibirica var. sukaczewii nom. inval.); elsewhere, the species is usually treated as monotypic. Hybridises with Larix gmelinii at the eastern edge of its range to give Larix × czekanowskii‎.
