==Etymology of genus name== The genus name Lagochilus is derived from the Greek elements λαγός (lagos) "hare" and χείλος (ch(e)ilos) "lip" (in reference to a perceived resemblance between the shape of the corolla and the cleft lip of a hare).<ref>{{cite journal |vauthors=Mamadalieva NZ, Akramov DK, Wessjohann LA, Hussain H, Long C, Tojibaev KS, Alshammari E, Ashour ML, Wink M |title=The Genus Lagochilus (Lamiaceae): A Review of Its Diversity, Ethnobotany, Phytochemistry, and Pharmacology |journal=Plants |volume=10 |issue=1 |pages= |date=January 2021 |pmid=33440727 |pmc=7826601 |doi=10.3390/plants10010132 |doi-access=free}}</ref>
