¿ Justicia procumbens ?  
Dear friends,
Please help validate whether Justicia procumbens. The tiny flowered Justica confuse me.

Before I could sort them out , names of Rungia and Rostellularia are changing to Justicia ...seen in FOI... Rostellularia crinita has become Justicia neesi , Justicia procumbens has changed to Rostellularia procumbens ...not only that ...in FOI two images in Justicia procumbens are different in their spikes !!! One  image is by you , Dinesh sir , and it looks different than this post .  
Leaves here are orbicular , much different than leaves in efi page for J. procumbens .

Thanks Rakesh ji for pointing out.
"The" confusion for me are leaves and length of inflorescence - they vary in sites and references.
My posted plant may not be Justicia procumbens, but can not guess any further.
Will wait for more comments.

Regards.

Is there any expert on these similar looking Justcia species ?
I think I have to sit for a few days to sort our plants in eif site and possibly in FOI.

My personal favorite Rungia repens too has changed name ....and it appears in more than one species page !
Similarly , Rungia pectinata and Rungia parviflora ....I am unable to make a call whether a particular specimen in field is former or latter !
