--><p><i>Potentilla macounii</i> differs from other species in sect. Concinnae in the combination of subpinnate leaves, with at least two proximal pairs of leaflets separated from the terminal leaflets, and in having somewhat softer hairs. It occurs on the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains in southwestern Alberta (where of conservation concern) and in western Montana. Some problematic collections from the Absaroka Range in western Wyoming are most comparable to <i>P. macounii</i>, but have softer vestiture and somewhat larger, less divided, more subpalmate leaves. If these Wyoming populations were included in <i>P. macounii</i>, the upper elevation range would be 3300 m.</p>
