A REYISED ARRANGEMENT OF BRITISH ROSES 7 



Var. separahilis (Deseg-].). Typically unarmed, leaflets o£ medium 

 size, shining, coriaceous, fruit obovoid or ellipsoid, styles hispid. V.c. 

 3, 17, 28, 82, 86, 89, 12, 08, 62, 65, 88. 



Yar. ueinophlla (Desegl. & Ozan.). Leaflets large or medium, 

 flowers rose, fruit ovoid, styles in an elongate fascijle, glabrous or 

 nearly. V.c. 3, 7, 14, 17, 28, 24, 88, 57. 



i.fiexihilis (Desegl.). Prickles stouter and more hooked, leaflets 

 more narrowed at the base, flowers white, fruit more elongate, styles 

 quite glabrous. V.c. 8, 18 ?, 14?, 17, 29, 86, 40, 62, 80. 



Yar. senticosa (Ach.). Leaflets small or rather small, petioles often 

 pubescent, fruit small, broadly ovoid, styles hispid, often only thinly 

 so. Closely associated with its subvarieties and with var. ciirticola 

 in the next Subgroup. Y.c. 8, 16, 17, 21, 22, 28, ^32, 88, 84, 85, 36, 

 40, 58, 59, 62. 



f. oxypliylla (Kip.). Like var. seniicosa, but leaflets small, 

 rarely rather large, narrow, acute at each end. Fruit rather bi-oadly 

 ovoid, styles hispid. Y.c. 17, 58. 



f. mucronulafa (Desegl.). liike var. senticosa but styles quite 

 glabrous, fruit ovoid. Y.c. 17, 23 ?, 83, 84, 65 ?. 



f. Amansii (Desegl. & Kip.j. Like var. senticosa but fruit quite 

 globose. Its styles are hisjjid. Y.c. 15, 16, 17, 86, 58, ^"6 or 64?. 



B. Subgroup Transitori^. 



Intermediate between the last and next Subgroups. Leaflets 

 mostly simply serrate, but some of them, especially the lower ones of 

 the flowering shoots, distinctly biserrate, the primary teeth bearing 

 2-3 denticles which are often gland-tipped. 



R. LUTETIANA var. transitoria K. Kell.=^i?. insignis Desegl. & 

 Rip. As in type Ivtetiana, except for the incipient biserration. 

 The petioles are often glandular. Y.c. 3. 4, 17, 22, 23, 24, 81, 82, 

 34, 86, 55, 57, 58, 59, 60, 64, 69, 70, 80, Antrim. 



Yar. rliyncliocarpa (Rip.). Fruit elongate-ovoid or obovoid, 

 much constricted below the disc so as to be almost beaked. Leaflets 

 normally large, but variable, styles glabrous or subglabrous. Y.c. 

 17, 42. 



Yar. (jJohnlaris (Franch.). Fruit subglobose or broadly ovoid, 

 sepals often rising. Y.c. 8, 5, 17, 22, 28, 82, 34, 36, 87, 55, 58, 60, 

 87, Antrim. 



Yar. syntrichosfyla (Rip.). Leaflets small or medium, styles 

 densely villous, usually salient. Y.c. 2, 3, 5 ?, 17, 34, 86 ?. 



Yar. curticola (Pug.). Near var. senticosa, with small leaflets, 

 small ovoid or subglobose fruit, and glabrous styles on a conical disc. 

 Y.c. 5, 14, 17, 34. 



f . ramosissima Rau. This appears to differ from the last chiefly in 

 its numerous short unarmed flowering branches. Its leaflets are 

 larger and more narrowed at base, more uniformly serrate, styles more 

 hibpid and disc flatter. Y.c. 17, 22, 23, 24, 82, 64. 



C. Subgroup Dumales. 

 These have all or most of their leaflets biserrate, not always 

 strongly so, nor with the denticles always gland- tipped ; they are
