广西(Guangxi)：马山县，古零乡，弄拉自然保护区(Mashan Xian,Guling Xiang,Nongla nature reserve),alt.150 m，石灰岩山(in limestone hill)，草本高0.4 m(herbs 0.4 m tall)，2008-08-23，中植联广西队(Guangxi Exped.Inst.Bot.) 3477(holotype,PE).

本种在亲缘关系上与麻栗坡楼梯草(ElatostemamalipoenseW.T.Wang & Zeng.Y.Wu)相近，与后者的区别在于本种的茎无毛，具分枝，叶椭圆形，在顶端渐尖，边缘具牙齿，侧脉约4对，雌花序托无毛，雌总苞由较少的约30枚苞片组成。在麻栗坡楼梯草，茎在近节处被短柔毛，不分枝，叶呈长圆形，在顶端骤尖，边缘具小牙齿，侧脉5～7对，雌花序托被短柔毛，雌总苞片由较多的约75枚苞片组成[1]。
