Balkar ji Saxifraga brachypoda var. fimbriata, now correctly known as S. wallichiana belong to the section spinulosae in which leaves are acute, narrower and spinose tipped as can also be seen from description and illustration on Flora of China.
http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=12281&flora_id=2 Above plant seems to have much broader obtuse leaves, sepals are broader and obtuse and petals without two callosities, and petal margins not fimbriate. Perhaps more searching is needed. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
