Taxonomic Comments
Potentilla pseudosericea is currently confirmed only from the central Sierra Nevada and Sweetwater and White mountains of California (B. Ertter 2008). The species is similar to P. modesta but has a more tightly strigose, silvery vestiture and more numerous and deeply incised leaflets. P. pseudosericea Rydb. is also accepted in Kartesz (1999) but was reported for California and Nevada.
