more Herb, without no. and collector, July 27, 1903). In the pubescent 

 underside of its leaves var. Deamii resembles var. longifolium Blake but 

 that variety has much smaller and narrower, ovate ot ovate-oblong leaves 

 with more numerous veins and longer teeth. From the southern V. 

 scabrellum Chapm. which agrees with V. pubescens in the fruit and stone, 

 var. Deamii is easily distinguished by the glabrous smooth branchlets. 

 The leaves of some specimens resemble those of the following variety in 

 shape and serration but they all have the under surface soft pubescent. 



Viburnum pubescens var. indianense, var. nov. 



Affinis var. Canbyi Blake sed differt ramulis novellis glabris, foliis 

 grossius serratis dentibus fere ac longis quam latis, petiolis plerisque stipulis 

 subulatis instructis et supra leviter vel interdum densius adpresse pilosis 

 rarius glabrescentibus. — Folia orbiculari-ovata vel ovata, 6-9 cm. longa 



et 4.5-7.5 lata.

This variety differs from var. Canbyi chiefly in the presence of stipules 

 on most of the petioles, by which character it agrees with the preceding 

 variety; it also differs in the generally coarser serration of the leaves and 

 the glabrous young branchlets, though occasional specimens of the latter 

 variety show the same kind of serration and may have glabrous or glabrate 

 branchlets. Some specimens as nos. 39002, 39971 and 40022 with smaller 

 glabrescent leaves approach V. dentatum L. but may be distinguished by 

 the presence of stipules, larger inflorescence and larger short-ellipsoidal 

 fruit from that species which apparently never has stipules and has 

 smaller subglobose fruit and denser smaller inflorescence.
