|discussion=<p><i>Viola macloskeyi</i> was described by Banks in 1824 as <i>V. rotundifolia</i> <i></i>var.<i> pallens</i>, from specimens collected by Banks in Labrador. E. Brainerd made the combination V. pallens in 1905 and later (1924) detailed its troublesome nomenclatural history.</p><!--
--><p><i>Viola macloskeyi</i> was described in 1895 by F. E. Lloyd based on specimens collected at the base of Mount Hood, Oregon. M. S. Baker (1953) placed <i>V. macloskeyi</i> as a subspecies of V. pallens. He later (1953b) corrected that change based on priority and thus the taxon became known as <i>V. macloskeyi</i> subsp. pallens. N. H. Russell (1955) maintained that status, separating subspp. macloskeyi and pallens on the wider, spreading basal leaf lobes of subsp. pallens. McKinney, after examining specimens of both taxa, including types, concluded that the differences have been exaggerated and fall within the range of variation of a single species.</p><!--
--><p><i>Viola macloskeyi</i> occurs in small colonies; individual plants are interconnected by stolons.</p><!--
--><p>In parts of its range, <i>Viola macloskeyi</i> often shares habitat with <i>V. renifolia</i>; it may be difficult to distinguish the two. The stolons of <i>V. macloskeyi</i> are useful for identification during summer months; <i>V. renifolia</i> plants lack stolons. Patterns of indument can be useful; <i>V. renifolia</i> is usually hairy and <i>V. macloskeyi</i> is usually glabrous (petioles sometimes pubescent).</p><!--
--><p><i>Viola macloskeyi</i> reportedly hybridizes with <i>V. primulifolia </i>var.<i> primulifolia</i> (= V. ×mollicula House).</p>
