识别要点：Synotis panzhouensis is similar to S. nayongensis but differs from the latter species by its larger involucral bracts (7–8 × 3–4 mm vs. 5–6 × 2–2.5 mm) and phyllaries (7–8 × 2–3 mm vs. 5–6 × 1–1.5 mm), higher number of phyllaries ((7) 8 vs. 5) and disk florets (8–11 vs. 4–5), different colour of phyllaries (green vs. white with green apex) and pappus (red-purple vs. white).
形态特征：Perennial herbs, erect, rhizomatous. Rhizome thick, horizontal. Vegetative stem solitary, erect, 20–35 cm, densely white or ferruginous setulose. Flowering stem solitary, erect, scapiform, 30–60 cm tall, shortly branching, fulvous tomentose. Leaves rosulate at the base of fertile shoot; petioles 1–1.5 cm long, not winged, slightly expanded at base; blades oblanceolate or obovate, 10–18 × 2.5–5 cm, papyraceous, abaxially sparsely arachnoid, glabrescent or subglabrous, adaxially scattered setulose, pinnately veined, lateral veins 12–16, arcuate-ascending, base cuneate, margin shallowly sinuate-apiculate or repand-apiculate, apex subacute-acuminate. Stem leaves on reproductive shoots few, narrowly lanceolate, remote, much smaller. Capitula discoid, numerous, arranged in an attenuate narrowly paniculoid thyrse; pedicels 3–5 mm, fulvous tomentose, 1- or 2- bracteate; bracts below capitula linear, 5–10 mm long. Involucres narrowly campanulate, 7–8 × 3–4 mm, calyculate; bracts of calyculus 3–5, ovate-oblong or lanceolate, 1/4–1/3 as long as phyllaries; phyllaries (7) 8, narrowly oblong, 2–3 mm wide, herbaceous, green, margin narrowly scarious, glabrous, not veined, apically triangular, obtuse. Ray florets absent. Disk florets 8–11; corolla yellow, 8–10 mm, with tube 7–8 mm long, limb narrowly funnelform, somewhat exserted from involucre; lobes oblong-lanceolate, 1–2 mm long, apically acute. Anthers 3.5–4 mm long, anther tails equaling anther-collars; appendages lanceolate; anther-collars balusterform, basally dilated. Style branches 1.8–2 mm long, covered with long marginal papillae and often with a central tuft not conspicuously longer. Achenes ca. 2 mm, glabrous. Pappus 8–10 mm long, red-purple.
