Discussion
Species ca. 10 (7 in the flora).
Section Subviscosae consists of species that have radiated in the sky islands of southwestern North America and Mexico, mostly in rocky meadows or outcrops in forested montane areas (B. Ertter 2007c). Some species are chasmophytic, forming clumps on cliffs or steep rock outcrops, similar to species in Ivesia sect. Setosae. Mexican species are poorly known but include at least Potentilla mexiae Standley and possibly P. rydbergiana Rose, as well as undescribed taxa.
Section Subviscosae shares with sect. Concinnae leaves that are often palmate, prostrate stems, and slender pedicels that become recurved in fruit, as well as a similar biogeographic pattern. Section Subviscosae differs in that cottony and strongly verrucose hairs are lacking, leaves are never strongly bicolored, and petiole and stem hairs are spreading to loosely appressed. Vestiture consists of varying proportions of long hairs, short hairs, and glands; petals are often somewhat clawed, unlike the unclawed norm in the genus.
