Teucrium L. is one of the largest genera in the family Lamiaceae. In India, ten species have been reported so far. While revising the genus Teucrium in India, it was found that three names require lectotypification. Accordingly, lectotypes are designated here for Teucrium wattii Prain, Teucrium plectranthoides Gamble and Teucrium quadrifarium Buch.-Ham. ex D.Don.
