Ranunculus lanuginosus, also known as the wooly buttercup or downy buttercup, is a perennial plant found in parts of Europe. Its genus name comes from the Latin word for "frog" due to its preferred moist and shaded habitats, while its species name refers to the fine hair covering its stem. This species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753 and has several recognized varieties. It grows up to 80 centimeters tall and has palmately lobed leaves and yellow to orange flowers. It is toxic like other buttercups and is native to many European countries. It can be found in shaded forests and other humid areas and is classified as a hemicryptophyte species.
