R. luciae and its 4 varieties (R. luciae var. fujisanensis, R. luicae var. onoei, R. luciae var. hakonensis and R. luciae var. paniculigera) formed one clade that is consistent with their similar morphological characters. In this clade, R. luciae and its 2 varieties (R. luciae var. fujisanensis and R. luciae var. onoei) showed a closer relationship, while R. luciae var. hakonensis and R. luciae var. paniculigera are reluctantly separated from them.
