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

Classification

Although these species are often included in Potentilla, molecular data suggests they are more closely related to Chamaerhodos and Dasiphora than to the species which make of the bulk of Potentilla (such as Potentilla reptans).[1]
