  • Comment on (A): Nepeta cataria L., cat mint, Gewöhnliche Katzenminze

    Cf. Hunger (1935,168): XCVI: NEPITA = N. cataria. This identification is most commonly used (Cameron 1988,207; Deegan 1988,2,415; etc.).

  • Comment on (B): Calamintha nepeta (L.) Savi, lesser calamint, Kleinblütige Bergminze

    Biggam (1998,186-187) suggests that it "should be identified with Calamintha nepeta."

  • Comment on (C): Mentha longifolia (L.) Huds., spear mint, Ross-Minze

    Suggested by D'Aronco (1998, 55) and Van Arsdall (2002,191).
