666 CXII. LABIATE. (J. D. Hooker) [Dracocephalum. 
spikes large dense-fld. leafy, floral leaves and bracts pectinate, teeth awned, 
calyx 4-1 in. glabrous or pubescent, upper teeth broadly ovate aristate.— 
D. acanthoides, .Edgew. ex Benth, in DC. l c. 
WESTERN TIBET, alt. 13-16,000 ft.; Jacquemont, Falconer, &c.—DISTRIB. 
Turkestan. 
Glabrous or scaberulous, brittle. Stems 6-8 in., stout, ascending, obtusely angled, 
simple or divided. Leaves 1-1} in., coriaceous ; petiole 1-1 in. Spikes often larger 
than the rest of the plant, cylindric, 1-14 in. diam.; bracts green, elliptic, membra- 
nous. Calyx most variable in size, thinly coriaceous. Corolla 3-14 in., white, hoary, 
inflated beyond the calyx, lower lip short. Stamens included. Nutlets i-l in, 
narrow oblong, tip truncate or crenulate.— D. acanthoides is a rather larger leaved 
and flowered state from ‘Tibet N. of Kumaon, alt 12-15,500 ft. (Edgeworth, Strachey § 
Winterbottom). 
5. D. Ruprechtii, Regel Descr. Plant. Nov. fasc. vii. 77; stems 
ascending scaberulous, leaves sessile pinnatifid, lobes linear, whorls few-fld. 
distant, bracts pinnatifid with awned lobes, calyx 3-3 in. glabrous, upper 
teeth broadly ovate mucronate. D. bipinnatum, Rupr. Sert. Thianschen. 
60 (ex Regel). 
WESTERN TIBET; Gilgit, Col. Tanner.—DistTR1B. Turkestan. 
Nearly allied to D. moldavicum, but leaves pinnate with narrow lobes, corolla 
much larger, 1-13 in. long, more tubular, not so abruptly inflated, nutlets larger. 
Calyx often purple. Coroila pubescent, blue. 
*** Calyx nearly equally 5-cleft. Stamens exserted. 
6. D. stamineum, Karel. & Kiril.; low, diffusely branched from the 
base, stems terete few-leaved, leaves small petioled orbicular-cordate or 
reniform deeply crenate, whorls tomentose dense-fld. in terminal heads and 
one or more lower on the stem, calyx 4—4 in. tomentose, teeth ovate-lanceo- 
late aristate.

TIBET, alt. 14—16,000 ft., Thomson, Clarke. —Di1sTRIB. Turkestan, Alatau Mts. 
Stems excessively numerous from the root, ascending, green or purple. Leaves 
4-3 in. diam., rugose, glabrous or tomentose ; petiole of lower 1-3 in., very slender. 
Heads $ in. diam. ; bracts small, cuneate, entire or toothed. Calyx sessile, often 
coloured. Corolla small, dark blue, tube shortly exserted, limb small. Filaments 
sometimes twice the length of the tube. Nutlets 4, in. long, oblong, smooth.—Rather 
a Nepeta than a Dracocephalum. 
45 y. p. Hookeri, Clarke mss.; scaberulous, leaves pinnatifid, segments 
narrow linear, margins recurved, whorls in a dense terminal spike inter- 
rupted at the base, bracts pinnatifid, calyx 4-4 in. scaberulous, teeth equa 
nearly as long as the tube lanceolate pungent, sinus thickened. 
EASTERN TIBET; north of Sikkim, alt 15,000 ft.? J. D. H. " 
Specimens incomplete procured by collectors; upper portions of stem and spikes 
alone seen. Stem 4-angled. eaves 1 in., sessile; segments few, spreading. Spikes 
2-3in. long by 1 broad. Flowers sessile. Calyx straight or curved. Corolla 
twice as long, tube narrow, throat moderately inflated. Stamens shortly exserted. 
Nutlets  in., oblong, smooth.

This genus would better be included in Dracocephalum.
