Seen on the lower surface. This species and E. himalaicus may 
be distinguished from E. sulcatus by their flower buds, which 
are longer than broad, and in which the grooves alternating 
with the corolla lobes run about half-way down to the calyx 
tip. In E. sulcatus the flower bud just before expansion is 
broader than long, and the grooves run right down to the calyx 
tips.

Ramuli elongati folia alterna vel subalterna gerentes, angu- 
lati, nisi ad foliorum insertionem glabri vel fere glabri, breves 
a  folia in rosulam disposita gerentes. Folia lanceolata vel latius.
