I would also like to add that as per FBI - - *L. marrubioides* Desf. var. *pulneyensis* should have flexuous calyx teeth as long as the tube - *L. angularis* Benth. should have teeth very slender ciliate half as long as the tube
I fail to see above features also. I cannot rule out Taiwan's *L. chinensis* entirely!
