- Primula umbratilis. This is, I think, the true P. umbratilis, and it would appear to be the same, or very near it, as No. 3384. They have in common, the identical scent, which is rather an unusual one. The flowers are both mainly the same shape: . This shape differs from No. 3301, which are: . Although this one 3394 was growing on cliffs, it was not on sheer rock faces, as was 3384. 3394 also was found below cliffs on open grassy hillslopes. The colour of 3301 had much more red in it. No 3394 reminds me of the colour of P. bellidifolia. The scape of 3301 is not nearly so hairy as 3394 or 3384. The latter two have on the whole, many more flowers per head than 3301.
x This river has no name. The locals merely call it "Mangde Chu Tributary".
