Scarcely difierent from the last, but the serratures open and 

 very compound, the petioles more glanduloso-setose, and the 

 glands extending a little to the midrib beneath. Deseglise's plant 

 has globose fruit; my vinacea has oblong fruit, narrow sharp- 

 pointed leaves and bracts, branches and stipules suffused with vi- 

 nous red.
