- In his monograph on the genus, Mennema (1989, Leiden Bot. Ser. 11: 1-196) describes five varieties of Lamium amplexicaule based on morphology and geographic distribution; only var. amplexicaule is in North America, and Mennema notes that it is the most variable of the varieties, with many forms having been described. The documentation and circumscriptions in this paper are extremely thorough.
