This species, together with the allied and recently discovered P. quercetorum Agnew from N. Iraq, belong to Sect. Jenkinsonia (Sweet) Harv., whose other members all grow in the Cape province. P. quercetorum should be looked for in the oak belt of S. Hakkari.* It differs from P. endlicherianum in its larger size, less hairy or glabrescent leaves with lobed and dentate segments, more numerous shorter pedicels, and narrower upper petals.
