Recently, we discovered this species in Tibet, China. In this paper, morphological characteristics of P. tundrae are described; the photographs, habit, global distributions are provided; and morphological comparison of it with the similar species are discussed. The voucher specimen is deposited in the herbarium of China Agricultural University (BAU).
