Ranunculus tripartitus
Also called Three Lobed Water Crowfoot
Ranunculus tripartitus (three-lobed crowfoot) is a species of flowering plant in the family Ranunculaceae, which grows in pools and muddy hollows in coastal parts of Europe, North Africa and West Asia. It is rare and endangered throughout its range, and is considered to be an indicator of favourable environmental conditions.
This is primarily a European plant, although it has been reported as far east as Turkey and as far south as Morocco, so it is perhaps present on three continents. Owing to the difficulty of identifying species in the section Batrachium, there is some uncertainty about its range. For example, the Turkish plants were recorded as R. kastamonuensis. It may occur on the Aegean Islands, but this is also unconfirmed.
