According to genetic studies by Schoenswetter et. al. (2009), the alpine relatives of Papaver alpinum are all very closely related, so that they should be combined with it into one species, or at most distinguished by the rank of varieties. These are Papaver rhaeticum, Papaver ernesti-mayeri (MARKGR.) WRABER, Papaver kerneri, Papaver occidentale (MARKGR.) H.E.HESS & LANDOLT, Papaver sendtneri, and Papaver victoris SKORNIK & WRABER .
