    Based on the shapes of leaves for plants labeled as Viola praemorsa, it appears these are Viola purpurea subsp. venosa, a species is also known to occur in ID.

      Thank you, Dr. Little, for this update and the followup discussion we had concerning these species. I’ll be updating USWildflowers.com to reflect the corrected identification.
