ID Request- Oxytropis Herb at Pangong lake -Ladakh – Sept- PKA-03 : 6 posts by 2 authors. Attachments (2) Seen this Oxytropis sp. (Herb) near Pangong lake, ladakh. Oxytropisspecies so far in efi As mentioned for a previous inquiry, Oxytropis is a large genus; some of the species in Ladakh are difficult to identify/distinguish.
One has to inspect Oxytropis carefully, as Stewart lists 10 species from Ladakh, whilst Klimes & Dickore have 14 in their more up-todate checklist incl. a hybrid between O.microphylla and O.chiliophylla! It is a very large genus indeed.
Sometimes not easy to distinguish between Oxytropis and Astragalus.
I do not initially have any suggestions which species … photographed at Pangong Lake.
Hopefully, others can help? Appears close to images at Oxytropis cachemiriana Cambess.

Hopefully, others can help? Oxytropis chiliophylla Benth. ?? Looks different from Oxytropis chiliophylla as per This species probably be Oxytropis macrophylla as resembling to that. Confirmation required from other sources. This is mostly common species in Ladakh.
 I am not sure about O. chiliophylla but does not look like O.microphylla. Did not find O. macrophylla. 1 attachment
