A quite variable species as to size, specimens from Southeast China and Japan be- 
ing generally smaller than those from West and Southwest China, but all agree in essential 
characters, Some specimens (Henry 095) from Yunnan almost approaches L. involuata 
(Don) Presl in size, but differs in wide-creeping thizome, distant leaves, thicker texture 
and prominently raised midrib above.
