Endemic of Tajikistan [4] . Described from the Western Pamirs [3] .
Bulbous geophyte [4] . The flowers and the inflorescence itself are noticeably similar to those of the onion rhizomatous ( lat. Allium hymenorrhizum ), however, A. vallivanchense differs from the latter in particular in the scale of the bulb (reticular rather than stripe-shaped) and in the shape and size of the leaves [3] .
