Cherleria yukonensis, the Yukon sandwort or Yukon stitchwort, is a plant species native to Yukon and Northwest Territories of Canada, as well as Alaska, and The Russian Far East.

Flora of North America[2] and some other publications also report it from British Columbia, but more recent work shows those collections to have been misidentified.

[3] Cherleria yukonensis grows in dry, rocky meadows at elevations less than 1000 m.[2] Cherleria yukonensis is a perennial herb with a large taproot, spreading out along the ground to form low-lying mats.

Stems are up to 30 cm long.

Leaves are narrow and linear, up to 18m mm long but rarely more than 1.5 mm across.
