I presume these must come within Primula denticulata but I am far from certain as to the range of variation which exists within this species.  A species which has been recorded from Afghanistan to SE Tibet (and Myanamar) @ 1500-4500m, variation is inevitable.  Often hard to be sure about poorly developed forms or those in early growth. 

In Bhutan it is widespread in open damp meadows and flushes, marshy clearings in Oak, Pine & Spruce forests @ 1525 to 4100m flowering February to June.  I remember photographing a sizeable population when I was working in Bhutan in the 1990s.

It is entirely possible that in the future when the genus is revised, variants will be recognised at the sub-species or even species level.  Richards has recognised Primula cachemiriana (syn. P.denticulata var. cachemiriana) as a separate species. 

Hooker observed that the species was very variable separating var. paucifolia.
