 recently been offered for sale in London; the resin is described as 

 resembling copaiva, and is thought to be derived from Prioria copaifera

Janczewski, Ed. DE, Note sur le Ribes triste Pallas. (Me- 



moires de la Soeiete nationale des sciences naturelles et 



mathematiques de Cherbourg. XXII. 1902. p. 341—348.) 



Le nom de Ribes triste doit s'appliquer ä une espece repandue en 

 Siberie, au Japon et dans l'Amerique boreale, dans les stations mareca- 

 geuses. Depuis que Pallas l'avait designee sous ce nom. on l'a 

 meconnue et rattachee ordinairement comme variete au R. rubrum Linne 

 sous plusieurs denominations dont deux: A. alblnervium Michx. et pro- 

 plnquum Turcz. ont ete meine donnees comme se rapportaut ä des 

 especes bien distinctes. 



La distinction du R. triste etablie par Janczewski semble entratner 

 l'absence du R. rubrum de l'Amerique du Nord. Ce que Michaux, 

 puis Torrey et Gray ont considere comme representant cette derniere 

 espece, doit se rapporter au R. triste. Henri Hua.
