short scattered prickles. Leaves thin, suborbicular in outline, cordate or subcordate at 
the base, 2-3.5 cm. wide, 3-5-lobed, sparingly pubescent when young, and with glandu- 
lar hairs, or the upper surface glabrate, the lobes obtuse, crenate-dentate, the slender 
petioles glandular-pubescent ; peduncles 1-flowered or occasionally 2-flowered, glandular- 
pubescent, shorter than the leaves; bracts ovate to orbicular, as long as the pedicel or 
shorter ; ovary densely covered with short-stalked glands; hypanthium narrowly campanu- 
late, purple-red, finely pubescent, 3-5 mm. long; sepals oblong, purple-red, reflexed- 
spreading, 2 to 3 times as long as the hypanthium; petals whitish, about half as long as 
the stamens; stamens about as long as the sepals; anthers broadly oval, purple, granulose

Ribes Marshallit Greene, Pittonia 1: 31. 1887. 
Young shoots puberulent ; branches armed at the nodes with short triple spines 1 cm.

the blades or shorter; peduncles 1-flowered, sparingly glandular-pubescent, shorter than 
the petioles; bracts ovate, shorter than the pubescent and sparingly bristly pedicel ; ovary 
bristly, the bristles weak, ascending ; hypanthium cylindric-campanulate, 2-3.5 mm. long, 
sparingly pubescent, green or purplish; sepals linear-oblong, 12-15 mm. long, often 
greenish on the outside, recurved-spreading ; petals salmon-colored, spatulate, half as long 
as the stamens; stamens a little longer than the sepals, the anthers narrowly oblong, yellow,

Ribes pinetorum Greene, Bot. Gaz. 6: 157. 1881. 
A shrub about 2m. high, the branches glabrous and without prickles, but bearing stout

glabrous and dull-green above, paler and sparingly puberulent beneath, at least on the 
stronger veins, sometimes slightly villous and glandular, the lobes obtuse, irregularly 
incised-serrate, the slender petioles as long as the blades or shorter, puberulent and with 
scattered glandular hairs; peduncles puberulent, shorter than the petioles, erect, usually 
1-flowered, rarely 2-flowered; pedicels puberulent, somewhat shorter than the peduncles; 
bracts thin, broad, ciliate; ovary bristly; hypanthium and sepals pilose, reddish-yellow ; 
sepals linear to linear-spatulate, acute, reflexed, 6-8 mm. long, about twice as long as the 
cylindric-campanulate hypanthium, and one third longer than the petals and stamens; 
anthers ovate, obtuse, 1.5 mm. long; style glabrous; berry purple, globose, 1-1.5 cm. in
