Loureiro says that the stems are terete and glabrous, but the remainder of his character appears to agree 
very well with the plant before us. The whole is about a foot or a foot and a half high; the stem, although 
herbaceous, is in some specimens of so hard a nature at the base, that we suspect the plant to be perennial.

Allied to L. biflora, but with more flowers in the verticillastrum: also to L. mollissima, but the leaves are 
much thinner, not rugose, and not tomentose underneath. From L. dicemdentata, it is known by the shortly 
petioled floral leaves. It may possibly prove to be L. Javanica, Benth., or Phlornis Ghinensis, Blume; but of 
that no character is given by Mr. Bentham, nor any, we believe, bj' Blume himself.
