„On our specimen most of the leaves are obovate-oblong to panduriform; other- 
Wise it agrees well with Franchet’s description. The fruit is smaller and has more 
prominent and wider wings than that of A. heterophylla Hemsley, and the short 
petioles and different-shaped corolla also serve to distinguish it from Hemsley's 
Species. The plant is rather rare.
