摘要

This study documents the diversity of the genus Geranium (family Geraniaceae) in the Pangi Valley, Himachal Pradesh, India. Geranium rubifolium is represented as a new distributional record for the Himachal Pradesh state. Furthermore, G. himalayense and G. pratense are documented as new additions to Chamba district. The research provides a taxonomic key, detailed morphological descriptions, habitat notes, live photographs, Scanning Electron Microscopic images (SEM), and an updated distributional map to facilitate accurate species identification. These findings contribute to the understanding of Geranium diversity in the Western Himalaya and serve as a valuable resource for future taxonomic studies.
