According to Hortus III, the differences are as follows:
T. delavayi - "achenes flattened, long-stalked, 3/8 inches long"
T. dipterocarpum - "Achenes sessile, flattened, 2-winged" (no size mentioned)
It also notes that T. delavayi is "Commonly cultivated under the name
of T. dipterocarpum, but that sp has slightly smaller flrs and
broader, shorter anthers."
Hope this helps.
