Corydalis govaniana by any chance?

---

Here are the differences
C. cornuta                                                                              C. govaniana

Plant procumbent with long strangling branches                     Plant erect

Flowers yellow with dark tips, 1.2-2 cm long                          Flowers yellow without dark tips, 2.5 cm long

Spur almost as long as posterior petal                                    Spur half as long as posterior petal

capsule oblong obovate, 10-12 mm long                               Capsule oblong, 10-15 mm long

With more close ups perhaps this may be resolved.

That’s too close….. 🙂

The best I can do sir…

I think I will go with C. cornuta, the spur seems pretty long in one or more flowers where it is visible. The tips of leaf segments are more or less pointed in this species, not so in C. govaniana in which also the stem leaves are not more than two.

C. govaniana has ercet robust habit, 0-2 cauline leaves (with leaves mostly radical), erect robust inflorescence and curved spur. Wikimedia Commons
This one looks to me as C. ramosa Wall ex Hook.f. & Thoms.
