On further checking, I found that *Pseudognaphalium luteoalbum* is not mentioned in The checklist of Nepal and there is only one specimen of it from India in GBIF <https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/gallery?continent=ASIA&country=IN&taxon_key=3147761> out of the total 18,062 available in GBIF. I feel most of the postings are correctly placed in our site at Pseudognaphalium affine <https://efloraofindia.com/2011/09/18/gnaphalium-affine-1/> (except for some of *P. hypoleucum* <http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=250097951>, which I have already pointed out) as per GBIF <https://www.gbif.org/occurrence/gallery?taxon_key=3100918>.
