POTENTILLA SUBVISCOSA Greene, Bull. TOM Bot. Club, 8: 97. 1881.
Differs from P. Wheeleri in the leaflets, which are deeply cleft into oblong divisions, and the middle one often 3-divided to near the midrib, in the petals which are more or less plainly un guiculate and about one-half longer than the sepals, in the more hirsute pubescence which is intermixed with numerous glands. It resembles closely the figure of P. Dombeyi in Nestler's Mono
graph, but neither Nestler nor Lehmann mention anything con cerning the glands or the unguiculate petals. P. Dombeyi was de scribed from specimens from Chili, but has been reported from Mexico. I have not seen any specimens and doubt its existence there. P. subviscosa grows in Arizona and New Mexico.
