Taxonomic note Veronica laevis Benth., not Lam.
This species is allied to V. brachysiphon. Plants at Kew probably belonging to this species have the leaves more densely set on the shoot than in V. brachysiphon. They are oblong-oblanceolate, 1⁄2 to 5⁄8 in. long, about 3⁄16 in. wide, blunt at the apex, slightly concave, medium, mat green above; leaf-bud without sinus. Flowers white in dense racemes about 11⁄4 in. long, some of them branched; peduncles hairy, shorter than the subtending leaf; bracts equalling or slightly shorter than the pedicels. Native of the mountains of North Island.
