I agree Sir. Haines (also noted by Dr. V. S. in the monograph) that considered close affinity of *L. montana* with *L. decemdentata* (a variable species).
As per the monograph, *L. lavandulifolia* Sm. was named as *L. indica* (L.) Vatke. "The name *L. indica* (L.) Vatke (1875) based on *Leonurus indicus* L. ....... should be rejected".
