Nomenclatural note. Veronica spicata var. subcanescens is a type of V. spicata with dense, white indumentum of short hairs differing in the latter aspect from V. spicata subsp. fischeri . No specimen in LW bears that name but one in P. This, however, does not originate from the type localities. Until there is a chance to find a better matching type in another herbarium, I will not typify the name.
