Many thanks Gurcharan ji for resolving my query. I remember about the *ae* to *i* ruling that you had clarified earlier. The query arose in my mind when no mention of Rees. is found in The Plants List and NPGS/GRIN.
There are quite many results found on searching "*Leucas lavandulaefolia*Rees." in Google, especially reflect in pharmacological whitepapers at reputed sites. Tropicos too seems to show it ... http://tropicos.org/Name/17600129 Rees. also finds an entry in two reference books: 1) Indian Medicinal Plants - An illustrated dictionary - by C P Khare 2) The Useful Plants of India - NISCAIR Regards.
