Even though GRIN accepts two species names for Pulsatilla (2007-2008), ITIS says that even the genus name is no longer accepted (2011).

The links on these sites just aren't working the right way. That was supposed to take you to all of the Pulsatilla entries, but the link reverted to a general page. Enter Pulsatilla into the search box and you'll see what I mean. Every species name has been recategorized as a species of Anemone. Pulsatilla campanella, once again, is not even named. This often means that it became a synonym so long ago that the information is no longer present on GRIN or ITIS. Tropicos' source for P. campanella is a book published in the Soviet Union in 1931.

Here's the information about Pulsatilla as a genus name:
