Stachys antalyensis is a species of flowering plant in the family Lamiaceae endemic to the Antalya region of Turkey.

Description

Stachys antalyensis is a perennial herb with fragile stems growing on calcareous rocks in Antalya with an altitude of 400-800 m.

It is a hairy plant, with moderate to large (to 7 cm), oval, broad-toothed leaves, and with whorls of white flowers set densely along shortish (to c.8 cm), straight flowering stems orientated upwards, with generally 6-10 flowers per whorl, a combination distinguishing it from similar species which generally have fewer flowers per whorl, much longer flowering stems regularly drooping downwards, or flowers that are pinkish. The flower tube has a ring of hairs within.

As a regional-endemic known from a limited number of places, it is classed as VU (Vulnerable).
