A mixed collection of 1) Ranunculus multiscapus (specimen with tall flower), 2) Ranunculus royi (specimen with shorter fruiting peduncles - no flower present so cannot be certain of this ID, but most likely this sp., rather than R. foliosus on the basis of apparently near-sessile flowers and achene size 2.2mm).
