ROSA MACROPHYLLA. 35 
From specimens communicated to Mr. Hooker it ap- 
pears that Swartz had intended to divide this into three 
species, which he called citnmamomea, cinerea and turbi- 
nella, Their appearance is very similar, nor have I 
been able to detect sufficient marks of discrimination. 
No other figure than that in Flora Danica has been 
given of this pretty Rose.
