Further to my previous comments.  This is a difficult genus.

Enumeration of the Flowering Plants of Nepal list S.raphanifolius as a synonym of S.diversifolius Wall.#

They record this from 2300-4000m throughout Nepal through to Bhutan and Assam.  They said it was

distinguished from S.chrysanthemoides by its larger capitula and red hairs although both these characters

are variable.  Further investigation may show that S.diversifolius should be included in S.chrysanthemoides.

Some specimens of S.diversifolius have achenes without a pappus.

This was back in 1982.

Given the difficulties, I wonder if it is possible to say which species of Senecio is involved with a small number

of non-close-up images only.

Best Wishes,
