Based on leaves Sorbus lanata and S.cuspidata are differentiated as: Leaves lobulate.....................S.lanata Leaves not lobulate................S. cuspidata as differentiated in Osmaston (1927) A Forest Flora for Kumaon. Leaves are not lobulate in this case and thus point toward S. cuspidata. The plant uploaded by Manoj Chandran Ji have lobulate leaves and goes to S.lanata. Supplement to Flowers of the Himalaya by A.Stainton has images of both species (plate34). DSRawat Pantnagar
