I think this appears close to images and details at Oxytropis microphylla (Pall.) DC.

Yes it is O. microphylla. I wish to share a small tip w.r.t. to localities in Ladakh. Locally, 'La' means pass, e.g., Khardung La, Lachulung La, Chang La, etc. Hence, it may not be appropriate to write Khardung La Pass. Similarly, Tso means lake - e.g., Pangong Tso, Tsartsapuk Tso, etc. Likewise, Pangong Tso Lake may not be quite right.

Cheers!....:)

[J.M. Garg]

Thanks a lot, Rawat ji.

Yes, we, from the plains, are not so well aware of these things or write it again for more clarity.

Yes, this is very likely Oxytropis microphylla. Quite similar is also Oxytropis chiliophylla, distributed mostly above 5000 m a.s.l., with different fruits, but they are not visible.

I have collected O. chiliophylla from Fotula in 1973, alt. 4300 m. My plant and the description suggests that leaves are smaller and plant more stunted than O. microphylla. O. hypoglottoides is a much laxer plant.
