Specimen from Lahul (J^schke n. 230).
This account of P. tenuirostris is based on the examination of 39 specimens
(23 gatherings', with analyses of flowers from 35 specimens. The species is at once
diagnosed both from P. pijramidata and P. pedinata by its sessile cauline leaves. Duthie
n. 1873 (issued as "P. pyramidata") is a gathering of excellent fruiting specimens of
this; the original specimen preserved at Saharanpur still retains some corollas.

This account of P. pyramidata is based on the analysis of flowers from 39 specimens.
The species is closely allied to P. pectinata., of which it appears to be the representative
in the trans-Indus Himalayan district. The areas affected by the two species are
distinct in the outer Himalayan ranges and hardly overlap in the inner ranges. Tlie
time has not yet arrived for the treatment of this plant as a mere variety of
P . pectinata ; the diagnosis has been already given under that species.
