Stachys ilicifolius is a species of flowering plant in the family Lamiaceae. it is an annual native to Central Asia (Iran, Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and Xinjiang).[1][2]

The species was first described as Chamaesphacos ilicifolius in 1841, and placed in the newly-described genus Chamaesphacos.[1] Phylogenetic studies found that Chamaesphacos was embedded in the large genus Stachys,[3] and in 2021 Alexander Nikolaevitsch Sennikov placed the species there as Stachys ilicifolius.[1]
