This is an extremely xerophytic form of C. Delavayi, in aspect 
very unlike the southern type. Still it is easily recognised by the 
pinnate leaves being silky beneath.

The plant is allied to T. alpinum, Linn., and T. leuconotum, 
Franch. From the former it is distinguished by the more 
rounded leaflets, the taller scapes, the nearly sessile flowers, the 
yellow perianth, the less mucronate anthers ; from T. leuconotum 
it is separated by the exstipellate leaves, the leafless scapes, the 
greater number of carpels, and the much shorter carpel.
