Gray records this plant from Simoda, though the Kew speci- 
men is labelled * Loo Choo Islands." 
It has been suggested as perhaps a form of S. dependens 
(Franch. et Savat. Enum. Pl. Jap. i. p. 378), but it is quite distinct, 
or at least easily distinguished by its foliage, which is singularly 
like that of Veronica hederacea, Linn. Miquel (Ann. Mus. Bot. 
Lugd.-Bat. ii. p. 114) asks whether it may not be his Ajuga 
Japonica, a question answered by Gray if he correctly determined 
Wright’s specimens.

Eastern Siberia, Mandshuria, and Japan. 
An exceedingly variable species in stature, foliage, and degree 
of hairiness. Specimens collected by Ford in the Taimo moun- 
tains opposite Hongkong are almost scapose in habit, with 
crowded, thick, very hairy leaves and long, naked flower-spikes ; 
but Dr. Henry sends specimens from Nanto intermediate in 
character between this and ordinary S. indica, Linn.
