I am reviewing all related posts in view of Ashwini ji's post at Lysimachia debilis ABJUL2019/01

I do not find the key character of Plants red to black glandular punctate or striate as per keys in Flora of China

Should we keep it as Lysimachia japonica subsp. japonica (Plants epunctate or translucent glandular punctate as per keys in Flora of China) ?

Or can we consider it as a Plant with red to black glandular striate as in adaxial surface of the leaf ?

I do not find the key character of Plants red to black glandular punctate or striate as per keys in Flora of China in last two images as pointed out by Ashwini ji in SK1960 30 May 2019

Correct wording should be:
