*Leucas aspera* (Willd.) Link should have (ref. FoC) -

   - densely hispid many flowered globose verticillaster
   - hispid linear bracts as long as calyx
   - oblique calyx mouth, calyx hispid outside, teeth
   straight-triangular-spinescent apex

This species is not *Leucas aspera* (Willd.) Link.

Three species can be confused with are *L. aspera* (Wiild.) Link; *L.
zeylanica* (L.) R. Br. and *L. lavandulifolia* Smith.

This species has calyx mouth very oblique and largest upper tooth, so this
is also  *L. lavandulifolia* Smith.

DSCN7661a. jpg is not a *Leucas*.

Thank you
