Yunnan , Dali , 10000–11000 ft , August 1906 , Forrest 5042 ( holotype : E00724751 ; isotype : P06392590 ) Notes: Ku & Hultgard (2001) cited Parnassia affinis var. acuta (Diels) Nekrassova as a synonym of P. mysorensis var. acuta . In the revision of Parnassia by Nekrassova (1927) , P. affinis was treated as a synonym of P. mysorensis , but wrongly printed in bold, and P. mysorensis var. acuta was just listed after P. affinis , so P. affinis var. acuta maybe a pure misunderstanding of the Nekrassova’s publication.
