Taxonomic Comments
FNA (vol. 6, 2015) does not recognize distinct subspecies in Viola macloskeyi. Ballard et al. (2023) treat V. macloskeyi var. pallens as V. minuscula, therefore following Ballard et al. (2023), V. macloskeyi var. macloskeyi is equivalent to V. macloskeyi sensu stricto and this element is rendered obsolete.
