Myosotis dubia is a species of forget-me-not in the family Boraginaceae. It was previously considered a subspecies of the changing forget-me-not (Myosotis discolor), until recent genetic work discovered the two species to have different chromosome ploidy, where Myosotis dubia was found to be diploid, while M. discolor was hexaploid.[1]
