Summary
In the Enumeration of the Flowering Plants of Nepal (Press in Hara et al, 1982) and the Annotated Checklist of the Flowering Plants of Nepal (Press et al, 2000), the Nepalese species of the tribe Phlomideae Mathiesen are treated as Phlomis L. and Notochaete Benth. During the revision of the genus Phlomoides for the Flora of Nepal, a significant number of specimens were noted that did not correspond well with the Phlomoides species previously recorded from Nepal or its surrounding countries. They are recognised here as a new species, which is named as Phlomoides longidentata Pendry for its distinctive calyx teeth
