摘 要 ：尾叶纤穗爵床(Leptostachya caudatiflora H. S. Lo & D. Fang)的花药下方一室基部具距，应为爵床属植物, 提出1个新组合——尾叶爵床(Justicia caudatifolia (H. S. Lo & D. Fang) Z. P. Hao, Y. F. Deng & T. Daniel)。这样，纤穗爵床属仍为单种属。
Abstract:While preparing a treatment of Acanthaceae for the forthcoming Flora of China, Leptostachya caudatifolia H. S. Lo & D. Fang was found to show more similarities to Justicia L. than to Leptostachya Nees (e.g., its lower anther-theca spurred at a base and biaperturate pollen). A new combination, Justicia caudatifolia (H. S. Lo & D. Fang) Z. P. Hao, Y. F. Deng & T. F. Daniel, is proposed herein. Leptostachya wallichii Nees remains the sole species of the unispecific genus Leptostachya.
