This species has been collected by me on dry hill-sides near Kushabar, where 

 flowering in the middle of July. This small-flowered species is very nearly allied to 

 Euphrasia laiifolia Pursch, occurring in arctic America and arctic Europe. 



Distribution: Southern and middle Europe, Caucasia, and south-western Asia to 

 Tibet and the Himalayas, Siberia, eastwards to the Amoor Province, Manchooria, Corea,
