641018 Potentilla aff. vahliana
Distribution
Central Canada: Rare
Hudson Bay - Labrador: Rare
Mid Arctic Tundra: Rare
Southern Arcti Tundra: Rare
Geography: North American (NE): CAN.
Notes: This is a deviating, very densely and softly woolly plant documented from populations at several localities in northern and eastern Baffin Island. It combines characters from Potentilla pulchella (semidigitate to semipinnate leaves) and P. vahliana (columnar structure, pubescence combining hair types from P. subvahliana and P. nivea). This plant is too little studied and documented to be fully recognized as a hybrid species yet.
