Taxonomic Comments
The Flora of North America Editorial Committee (vol. 9, 2014) narrows the concept of Potentilla bipinnatifida by treating P. lasiodonta (= P. finitima) as distinct. Kartesz's (1999) broader concept which includes P. finitima also has a distribution restricted to western Canada and the U.S., while FNA includes material from central U.S. and eastern Canada (Ontario and Quebec).
