Taxonomic revision of endemic Pedicularis L. (Orobanchaceae) and their closely related taxa from neighboring countries

Project summary:

This project aims to revise the taxonomy of Bhutanese Pedicularis L. (Orobanchaceae) addressing uncertainties, especially 23 putative endemics known only from type locations and inadequately represented in collections. The present study forms a basis for an updated Flora treatment, targeting three key endemic complexes through integrating molecular and morphological approaches.
