|discussion=<p>Specimens of <i>Ranunculus hyperboreus</i> from the central and southern Rocky Mountains have the leaves always cordate and the fruiting heads always 4-5 mm; they have been separated as <i>R. hyperboreus</i> subsp. intertextus. Although Arctic specimens are more variable, they often have shallowly cordate leaf bases and equally large heads of achenes, so segregation of the subspecies seems inappropriate.</p>
