Notes: Label source: Letter 560/1923 : XV. p.158 - Dr TA Henry to Major Chipp. Specimen sent by Major Bailey. The roots (tubers) apparently cannot belong to A.rotundifolium, Kas & .?. Two kinds are represented in the sample, and probably the larger ones are A.s, picatum, Stapf and the smaller A.balfourii, Stapf. The last of these two species is not known from Sikkim, but roots may perhaps have been brought in by a collector. (Signed L.A.B. 11.1.24.)
Determinations:1.01 RANUNCULACEAE Aconitum balfourii Stapf
