flowers are noteworthy. It is separated from D. lapponica, 
moreover, by the broad filaments with basal lobes. From 
D. himalaica, Hook. f. et Thoms., it is further distinguished by 
a stouter habit, thicker leaves, larger flowers, and a more fleshy 
corolla.

This remarkable plant is ne “f M. parviflora, Kar. et Kir. 
var. chinensis, Batal. (which ought to be considered as a distinct 
species), but is different by the longer petioles of the basal leaves, 
the more regular toothing of the leaves, the calyx-lobes being 
separated by much deeper sinuses and apiculate, not obtuse. 
It has not been collected by Delavay.
