Yüri, 4605 m., and Camp CXCIII, Nangi, 4627 m., 4th July 1907; Camp CCXI,

Hlayak, 4861 m., and Camp CCI, Shapka, 4841 m., 12th July 1907 (flowering).

The specimens are different from the description in two points, viz.: the calyx
lobes are not toothed and the flower is usually not single, but two together on a
very short scape; but in spite of these discrepances I do not doubt the identification.
