Drymocallis is a genus of plants formerly (and sometimes still) included with the typical cinquefoils (Potentilla). It contains three species known or suspected to be protocarnivorous,[1] but more cinquefoils might eventually be moved here:[2][3]

Taxonomy

The genus Drymocallis was described by Per Axel Rydberg in 1908 with him crediting Jules Pierre Fourreau.[4] DNA sequence data suggests they are more closely related to Chamaerhodos and Dasiphora than to species such as Potentilla reptans (creeping cinquefoil) which make up the bulk of Potentilla.[2]

According to Plants of the World Online the genus includes 24 species.[4]
