[edit] sp. China 1 (xanthellum var. luteum / taliense var. kaichen)

Lilium sp. China 1
Lilium sp. China 1 bulb

This species is currently undescribed. It has been sold to collectors as L. xanthellum var. luteum, which is obviously wrong. It has informally been described as L. taliense var. kaichen. This is the commonly used name nowadays, though it is officially invalid and not fully convincing, as it probably is not L. taliense.
