Easily confused with Epilobium montanum and the very rare E. lanceolatum, it can be differentiated from these two by the absence of erect glandular trichomes on its calyx and fruit, present on E. montanum and E. lanceolatum.^[2]

Distribution and habitat

It is a rare species. Its native range is Europe to Western Siberia.^[1] Within Croatia, it is present only in the western part, in the Mountain and West Pannonian macroregions (and possibly East Pannonian).^[2]

It occurs on silicate substrates, including in wet places.^[2]
