Viola cryana was a population described in 1878 by François-Xavier Gillot as an independent species, from a single locality in the French Department Yonne first reported in 1860. This collection was made on small limestone outcrops in the region of Cry southeast of Tonnerre, and accessions of this form remained in cultivation for some time. It is now no longer extant; the population at this location disappeared by 1930.[3][4]
