Blume gives as vart of the generic character, the connivence of the teeth of the calyx ; 
a character very difficult to observe in dried specimens, and which does not appeár to me 
to rün-through all the above species, which are too closely allied together to be generi- 
cally separated. The form of the anthers, and the bearded stamina, are constant in the 
whole of them. Blume describes the stamina as declinate ; but if they are so in the living 
state it can only be in a very slight degree. This genus, different in habit both from 
Mentha and Pogostemon, is intermediate between them «in characters. 
13. Pogostemon. Desf. — Calyx zqualis, 5-dentatus. Corolla 4-fida, subbilabiata, 
labio superiore 3-fido patente, inferiori integerrimo acuto subdeflexo. Stamina 4, exserta, 
distantia, subdeclinata. Filamenta barbata. Anthere terminales, 1-loculares, rimá trans- 
versali dehiscentes.

Blume (Bijdragen, p. 827) describes another species, under the name of P. menthoides, 
of which the filaments are without the hairs I have found on every other species both of 
Pogostemon and Dysophyllum. If he be right in his description, either his plant must 
belong to some other genus, or the character of this one must be modified accordingly ; 
but not having seen his plant, I cannot determine this point. This genus has usually the 
stamina slightly declinate, and on this account would belong to the Ocymoidez ; but the 
declination is in general so slight as to be scarcel perceptible in dried specimens ; and 
the close connexion between the two latter genera (which cannot be separated from one 
another) and Mentha has induced me to place them in this tribe.
