|discussion=<p><i>Drymocallis deseretica</i> is common in the Wasatch and western Uintah mountains of northern and central Utah, where it has usually been treated as <i>Potentilla</i> glandulosa <i></i>var.<i> intermedia</i> (= <i>D. glabrata</i>) or <i>P. glandulosa</i> <i></i>var.<i> pseudorupestris</i> (= <i>D. pseudorupestris </i>var.<i> saxicola</i>). It differs from both taxa in its more compact inflorescences, predominantly short-hairy pedicels, and sepals that conspicuously enlarge in fruit, which create a distinctive aspect. Comparable plants with shorter, obtuse sepals occur in the Raft River Mountains; their optimal placement remains to be determined. Inclusion of Wyoming in the species range is based on Goodding 1993 (UT) from Bridger Peak, Carbon County. <i>Drymocallis deseretica</i> intergrades with <i>D. glabrata</i> to the north and <i>D. arizonica</i> to the south, with the exact range yet to be determined.</p>
