many. Gough. Leaves egg-shaped. Root-leaves scolloped, on leaf¬

upper purplish. Blossom blue, red, or white, in a long leafy spike, (lower

blossom is not like that of Teucrium , deeply divided with the stamens 
standing in the division, but short and slightly notched as in Ajuga. On 
this account it has been removed from the former genus by Haller, 
Schreber, and Smith. & J
