14 A REVISED ARRANGEMENT OF BRITISH ROSES 



Yar. Watson i (Baker). Leaflets rather large, biserrate, variable 

 in hairiness, but typically thinly so, without subfoliar glands, 

 peduncles smooth, rarely with a few glandular setae, fruit sub- 

 globose, ovoid, or urceolate, smooth. V.c. 40, 57, 58, 59, 65 ?, 69 ?, 

 70, 74, 78, 88. 



Var. celerata (Baker). Leaflets small, broad and fully biserrate, 

 like those of JR. tomentella, glandular on primary nerv^es, peduncles 

 smooth, fruit subglobose. Y.c. 39. 



D. Subgroup Subcoriifolise. 



These have all the characters of the CoriifolicB^ but with sepals 

 reflexed, or at most not rising above the disc. The absence of sub- 

 erect sepals makes its varieties difficult to separate from some of 

 those of the Dumetorum Group. 



^. Heuteri var. suhcolli)ia Chr. (sub H,. coriifolia). Leaflets 

 simply serrate, rather large, narrowed at the base, hairy on primary 

 nerves or on whole lower surface, without subfoliar glands, fruit 

 large, described as roundish or a little ovoid, but more often ellipsoid 

 in our examples. V.c. 17 ?, 70 ?, 88, 95, 98 ?. 



Yar. ccesia (Sm.). Leaflets grey-green, small, elliptical, narrowed 

 below, without subfoliar glands, slightly doubly serrate, peduncles 

 slightly glandular-hispid, fruit ellipsoid, smooth. Y.c. Perth, 99. 



Yar. incana Borr. (sub J?, ccesia). Prickles strongly hooked, 

 leaflets very glaucous, fully biserrate, narrow, hairy both sides, with 

 subfoliar glands, peduncles hairy, not glandular-hispid, sepals spread- 

 ing or loosely reflexed, fruit large oblong. Y.c. 95. 



f. suhcoriifolia (Barclay). Yery near var. incana, but prickles 

 less stout and less hooked, leaflets broader, less hairy, subfoliar glands 

 very inconspicuous, sepals fully reflexed and fruit obovoid. Y.c. 80 ?, 



88, 90, 106, Antrim ?. 



Yar. pruinosa (Baker). Leaflets rather small but broad, glaucous, 

 strongly biserrate, rounded or subcordate at base, peduncles smooth, 

 fruit subglobose or ovoid, often small. Y.c. 67, 70, 96. 



Yar. Lucandiana (Desegl. & Gill.). Leaflets large, oval, fully 

 biserrate, rounded at base, moderately hairy, without subfoliar glands, 

 peduncles smooth or glandular-hispid, fruit ovoid or subglobose. 

 Y.c. 3, 63, 70. 



Yar. Lintoni Scheutz (sub R. coriifolia). Near var. BaTceri, 

 but with spreading reflexed sepals, leaflets elliptical, with more 

 numerous subfoliar glands, subglobose fruit and smooth peduncles. 

 The subfoliar glands in a specimen from the locus classicus are very 

 difficult to see, as is often the case in very hairy leaflets. Y.c. 88, 



89, 91 ?, 92. 



Yar. obovafa Baker (sub E. tomentosa). Prickles hooked, leaf- 

 lets small, fully biserrate, obovate, obtuse, with subfoliar glands, 

 peduncles smooth, fruit ovoid ?. Y.c. QQ, 106 ?. 



3. Primary Group of R. tomentella. 



Prickles normally stout and hooked, with broad bases, but more 

 slender ones are admissible. Leaflets in most varieties small and
