Taxonomic Studies on the Genus Delphinium (Ranunculaceae) from China (VII): The Identity of D. yanwaense

Abstract:

Both herbarium and field observations have shown that Delphinium yanwaense W. T. Wang described from Weixi in northwestern Yunnan, China, is not essentially different from D. yuanum Chen, a species very common in northwestern Yunnan and highly variable in the degree of leaf division. We therefore reduce the former to the synonymy of the latter.
