The single species is L. gracilis, Hook. f. & Thorn. (Codondpsis gracilis, Hook. f. Campanumaea gracilis, Hort.), of Sikkim (India): glabrous slender perennial with alternate and opposite long-stalked ovate-crenate leaves: corolla 1-1 1/2 in. long, blue, tubular-curved, shortly 5-lobed, the calyx very deeply 5-lobed; stamens 5, free, with as many glands intervening; flowers terminal and opposite the leaves, single on slender peduncles.
