This is a mid- to high-elevation Himalayan species distributed from Pakistan to China. Variation in leaf dissection in both this species and the closely related Selinum candollei de Candolle is complex and complicates identification, particularly in the C Himalayas. These species are in need of taxonomic revision across their whole geographic range. Selinum candollei has not been found in China, but it has been reported to have medicinal properties.
