Jurinea muliensis and J. trachyloma were described on account of their leaf shape and indumentum, which is quite different from that of Dolomiaea souliei and seems to be a constant character at least in J. trachyloma from SW Sichuan. More material is needed to clarify the taxonomic status of these plants.
