Nasir Does not look like matching with any Selinium listed in Nepal, specially leaf pattern. Selinum and S. tenuifolium. I hope there is no mix up of images of two species in posting. No mix up ...!

L. coniifolia I think it should be Selinum wallichianum as per images, details and references herein. I guess Ligusticopsis wallichiana (DC.) Pimenov & Kljuykov is a good match. Syn: Selinum wallichianum (DC.) Raizada & Saxena On further working for days on Selinum of Nepal, I got more clarity in the matter after going through Keys, details and distribution to the species from Himalayan species of Selinum L. sl - BioOne It is Oreocome candollei (syn: Selinum candollei DC.) (Bhutan, Nepal, India (W Himalaya: Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh), Pakistan) (Rays 20-45 as per Himalayan species of Selinum L. sl - BioOne) as per description in Flora of Pakistan (Involucre of 5-12 long linear, white margined bracts compared to Involucre of 1 or 2 linear bracts or lacking of Selinum wallichianum (DC.) E. Nasir, to which it is confused). It also matches with images in Flora of Nepal on searching with Selinum candollei DC. at Himalayan species of Selinum L. sl - BioOne says as below: Note. – In the southern, rather wet slope of Annapurna we found both Oreocome candollei and Ligusticopsis wallichiana in very close or even the same localities in high-herbaceous subalpine stony meadows. In spite of essential differences particularly in fruit characters (see Results, above), moreover in stem and root structure, both species appear very similar. The characters of stem and root structure can hardly be observed in herbarium material.
This tall herb was recorded from near Valley of Flowers.. can this be Selinum vaginatum ?? efi page on Selinum vaginatum Leaving aside 1st images (which is of Selinum filicifolium (Edgew.) Nasir), this should be Selinum wallichianum (DC.) Raizada & H.O. Saxena as per keys at Flora of Pakistan On further working for days on Selinum of Nepal, I got more clarity in the matter after going through Keys, details and distribution to the species from Himalayan species of Selinum L. sl - BioOne It is Oreocome candollei (syn: Selinum candollei DC.)

Saw this Apiaceae member near Ghangaria, Uttarakhand in Aug 2018. Requested to please provide ID. Is this Selinum wallichianum? May be as per first glance at On further working for days on Selinum of Nepal, I got more clarity in the matter after going through Keys, details and distribution to the species from Himalayan species of Selinum L. sl - BioOne It is Oreocome candollei (syn: Selinum candollei DC.)
