1. Geranium pratense L. (Geraniaceae) Crane's bill (Wangyal 2020). Reported name spor chen.
2. Geranium refractum Edgew. &. Hook.f. (Geraniaceae) Crane's bill (Wangyal 2020). Reported name spor chung.
3. Erodium tibetanum Edgew. & Hook.f. (Geraniaceae) Storck's bill (Wangyal 2020). Reported name spor chung gab skyes.

With respect to synonyms, ga dur dman pa and spor seem almost exchangeable. 'Jam-dpal's image in the Eye ornament hardly matches Crane's or Storck's bill.
