Loureiro says that the stems are terete and glabrous, but the remainder of his character appears to agree
very well with the plant before us. The whole is about a foot or a foot and a half high; the stem, although
herbaceous, is in some specimens of so hard a nature at the bass, that we suspect the plant to be perennial.

Allied to L . biflora, but with more flowers in the verticillastrum: also to L . mollissima, but the leaves are
much thinner, not rugose, and not tomentose underneath. From L . decemdentata, it is known by the shortly
petiolcd floral leaves. It may possibly prove to be L . Javanica, Benth., or Phlomis Chinensis, Blume; but of
that no character is given by Mr. Bentham, nor any, we believe, by Blume himself.
