Sedum stenostachyum Fröderström, Acta Horti Gothob. 7: 113. 1932; Kungia schoenlandii var. lepidotricha K. T. Fu; Orostachys stenostachya (Fröderström) H. Ohba; Sinocrassula stenostachya (Fröderström) S. H. Fu; S. stenostachya var. integrifolia S. H. Fu; S. stenostachya var. lepidotricha S. H. Fu.

Leaf blade shortly white lepidote, minutely papilliferous, or glabrous, margin entire or coarsely dentate. Fl. Jul, fr. Aug.
