It is interesting to note that account of *Leucas chinensis* (Retz.) R. Br. in FoC is a bit different than Indin sites like http://keralaplants.in/keralaplantsdetails.aspx?id=Leucas_chinensis. Also one has to take note of calyx mouth http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/getImage.do?imageBarcode=K000929492.
Interestingly, there is also one *Leucas mollissima* var. *chinensis* <http://apps.kew.org/herbcat/getImage.do?imageBarcode=K000929486>, one *L. chinensis* var. *lanata* ... etc which KEW <http://wfo.kew.org/taxon/urn:kew.org:wcs:taxon:111659> thinks are synonyms of *L. chinensis*.
