Pulsatilla turczaninovii is a plant in the family Ranunculaceae, native to Siberia, Mongolia, and northern China. The common name pasque flower, derived from the Old French pasque (“Easter”), reflects the spring flowering period of Pulsatilla, which usually coincides with Easter. The species is named after Nikolai Turczaninow (1796–1864), a Russian botanist and plant collector.
