“West China :—lLitang-Yalung divide, S.W. Szechuan. Alt. 
12-13,000 ft. Flowers deep violet, powdered inside with white 
meal, which is much more abundant than in the other Muscarioid 
primulas met with, so that the inside of the corolla is quite 
white. Bracts and upper calyx lobes light chocolate. On steep 
shaded slopes under Rhododendron, on the Yalung side of the 
divide, facing N.W. Also amongst boulders and_ scrub, 
sheltered but not shaded. Seen nowhere else but in this one 
spot, some 50 plants being senate July 1921.’ 
Ward. No. 4386. 
Very much resembling P. apoclita, Balf. f. et Forrest, but 
with different leaves, closely beset on both sides with a very 
minute indumentum and lacking the long, white hairs so 
characteristic of the above species and its near allies. 
Microforma P. obconicac, Hance aestimanda ; foliis basi altius 
cordatis textura tenuioribus minus hirsutis, floribus intensius 
coloratis, corollae tubo longiore et angustiore, e calyce longe 
exserto a typo recedit; in silvis umbrosis in montibus Likiang 
dictis in provincia yunnanensi atque prope Muli in eisdem locis 
in provincia szechuanica crescitur; forma silvicola occidentalis 
plantae typicae esse videtur.

Omphalogramma elegans, Forrest. 
Affinis O. Souliei, Franch. atque O. Forrestii, Balt. f. et 
fortasse prioris varietas rectius habenda; ab O. Souliei foltis 
ad anthesin vix bene evolutis supra longiuscule pilosis, calycis 
lobis sublinearibus acutis divergit; ab O. minore, Hand.-Mzt. 
autem valde affini fructu duplo majore recedit. 
Planta sub anthesin 15-25 cm. alta, in fructu ad 60 cm. basi 
Squamis circumdata. Folia plerumque post flores evoluta, 
nonnunquam fere coetanea, petiolo 3-4 cm. longo latiusculo pilis 
longis articulatis bene induto suffulta; lamina 4-6 cm. longa, 
2-3 em. lata, ovato-lanceolata vel ovata, apice obtusa, basi 
subabrupte angustata haud cordata, supra pilis longiusculis 
albidis
