Balkar ji
It needs to get straight.
First the confusion which Nidhan ji also had: this plant has foliage of P.
sibbaldii (now Sibbaldia cuneata) but stamens are more than 10.

Our plant is Potentilla cuneifolia Bertol (not Potentilla cuneifolia
(Rydb.) T.Wolf) an accepted name), which was described as Potentilla
ambigua Camb. in Flora of British India.........The new correct name for
this is Potentilla cuneata Wall.

Needless to say The Plant List seems to have bungled here also putting P.
cuneifolia Bertol as synonym of Sibbaldia cuneata.
