Gentiana (and now related genera) is a difficult genus, as I have said previously. 

 

But the low elevation and spring flowering will eliminate some gentians from consideration.

I do not consider that these images come close to Gentiana pseudoaquatica (or whatever is its current accepted name) of what I understand to be this species - should they not be much more of a miniature?

I will try and look into the matter more.

 

At some stage, I would like to take a serious look at Gentianaceae of NW Himalaya but this is quite a challenge and have yet to find the time to focus properly on the family.   SO many other genera belonging to other families also urgently need attention (indeed revision).  So many families and genera are poorly known in the Himalaya.

So cannot comment further at this stage.

Gentiana sensu lato needs a close look.  Likely to require some DAYS

to go through all the images I have (of my own) plus those on eFI properly.

Cannot meaningfully comment further at this point.
