Sibbaldia is a genus of flowering plants of the family Rosaceae, with a circumpolar distribution, including the high Arctic. Most of the species are found in the Himalaya. The type species is Sibbaldia procumbens.
Species
Recent morphological and genetic studies have shown that Sibbaldia is polyphyletic, with some species needing synonymizing or reassignment to (or from) other genera, including Sibbaldianthe, Chamaecallis, and Potentilla.[2] Additionally, one of the three species of Sibbaldiopsis should be renamed Sibbaldia retusa once some clarity regarding the identity of their specimens is achieved. Species currently accepted by The Plant List,[3] with suggested reassignments are as follows:
- Sibbaldia adpressa Bunge → Sibbaldianthe adpressa (Bunge) Juz.
- Sibbaldia cuneata Schouw ex Kunze
- Sibbaldia micropetala (D.Don) Hand.-Mazz. → Potentilla micropetala D.Don
- Sibbaldia olgae Juz. & Ovcz. → Sibbaldia cuneata
- Sibbaldia omeiensis T.T.Yu & C.L.Li → Potentilla omeiensis (T.T.Yü and C.L.Li) Soják
- Sibbaldia parviflora Willd.
- Sibbaldia pentaphylla J.Krause → Potentilla clandestina Soják
- Sibbaldia perpusilloides (W.W.Sm.) Hand.-Mazz. → Chamaecallis perpusillodes (W.W.Sm.) Smedmark
- Sibbaldia phanerophlebia T.T.Yu & C.L.Li → probably P. micropetala
- Sibbaldia procumbens L.
- Sibbaldia purpurea Royle → Potentilla purpurea (Royle) Hook. f.
- Sibbaldia sericea (Grubov) Soják ← Sibbaldianthe sericea Grubov
- Sibbaldia sikkimensis (Prain) Chatterjee → Potentilla sikkimensis Prain
- Sibbaldia tenuis Hand.-Mazz. → Potentilla tenuis (Hand.-Mazz.) Soják
- Sibbaldia tetrandra Bunge → Potentilla tetrandra (Hook. f.) Bunge
