|discussion=<p><i>Alchemilla xanthochlora</i> was recognized by P. A. Rydberg (1908–1918) and M. L. Fernald (1950) as <i>A. pratensis</i> attributed to F. W. Schmidt, as typical <i>A. vulgaris</i> Linnaeus by M. L. Fernald and K. M. Wiegand (1912), and as <i>A. vulgaris</i> <i></i>var.<i> vulgaris</i> by B. Boivin (1966b). Actually, Schmidt published a varietal name [<i>A. vulgaris</i> var. pratensis F. W. Schmidt, <i>A. pratensis</i> (F. W. Schmidt) Opiz], which does not apply to this species nor does <i>A. vulgaris</i>.</p>
