Abstract

A new combination, Hebe paludosa, is made for plants first described as Veronica salicifolia var. paludosa and later treated as Hebe salicifolia var. paludosa. H. paludosa is typically a plant of lowland mesotrophic wetlands and is most abundant in south Westland around and immediately north of the glaciers district. H. paludosa is readily distinguished from H. salicifolia through its cytology, distinctive diffusely branching habit, brittle branchlets, yellow-green faintly glaucous-tinged leaves, conspicuous decurved and twisted acumen, flowers which have a longer corolla tube, acute corolla lobes which usually project forward, and preference for mesotrophic wetland habitats. © 1998 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
