Abstract
Veronicastrum noguchii K. Uehara, K. Saiki & T. Ando (Plantaginaceae), from Chiba Prefecture, Japan, is described as new. It is similar to V. villosulum (Miq.) T. Yamaz. in having a subglobose inflorescence, but differs in having recurved hairs on the stem, the leaf base cordate or occasionally truncate, the leaf margin crenate, the leaf surface sparsely pilose, bracts sparsely pilose and narrowly oblong to ovate, and narrowly triangular to linear subglabrous calyx lobes.
