Abstract

Potentilla wallichiana Delile ex Lehm. (1831) is established as a later homonym of P. wallichiana Ser. (1825). Consequently, P. wallichiana var. ternata Wolf (1908), non P. ternata C. Koch (1847), a legitimate infra-specific taxon of an illegitimate name, is raised to the species rank and is described here as P. khasiana C. B. Clarke ex B. K. Dixit et Panigrahi. A key to distinguish it from the allied taxon, P. sundaica (Bl.) 0. Kuntze is provided.
