Solms-laubachia is a high-elevation genus of perennial herbs in the family Brassicaceae. It is named for the German botanist Hermann zu Solms-Laubach.

Taxonomy

[edit]

In 2008, Yue et al. expanded Solms-laubachia, using molecular phylogenetics, to incorporate all Desideria species and one other species, Phaeonychium jafrii. They also described four new species.[3]

Distribution and habitat

[edit]

Solms-laubachia species grow naturally in the Himalayan, Karakoram, Pamir and Hengduan mountains or, regionally, in an arc from Kyrgyzstan in the northwest to southeastern Tibet. Their habitat is scree slopes and rock crevices from 4,000 m (13,000 ft) to 6,200 m (20,000 ft) elevation.[3]

Species

[edit]

34 species are accepted.[2]
