Primula bracteosa in FOI

[J.M. Garg]

Hi, Tabish ji,
Pl. see Primula bracteosa (syn: Primula boothii) in FOI.

Both are different species as per CoL and POWO:
https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:701628-1
https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/urn:lsid:ipni.org:names:701638-1

Pl. check which is the correct name for the posted image in FoI.

We have Primula boothii W. G. Craib in efi, which looks similar.

I guess P. bracteosa looks correct  and P. boothii is different.

Thanks Garg ji,

   The primulaworld page for Primula boothii says

"Confusion exists as to whether this species is distinct or synonymous with P. bracteosa. Both the Flora of Bhutan and the Flora of China, as well as modern Nepalese accounts consider these species the same. Primula boothii was originally found in Eastern Bhutan and into Arunachal Pradesh, but later collections from that area have been identified as P. bracteosa (or P. gracilipes)."

Since I am not able to differentiate between the two, as of now I am keeping the two same.
