I had earlier classified these specimens as C. verutum because of larger purple heads slightly spiny upper involucre bracts, but now it seems they mar better fit C. wallichii, a species which shows a lot of variation and may have spiniscent or acute tips of uppermost bracts, flowers may be yellow, white or red.
