 ITO, Aprili. 1914. 



Near Rubus pungens GAME. var. Oldhami MAXIM., but differs from it in its 

 habit, in its smaller leaves and in the much densely aculeate calyx. I found 

 the present plant forming unpenetrable bushes in a clearing in the Arisan over 

 an altitude of 7000 ft., in the spring of the year 1914. 



Rubus conduplicatus DUTHIE; HAYATA Ic. PL Forinos. p. 224, t. 24.
