each furnished with one or two accessory gland-tipped teeth, the terminal 

 leaflet elliptical or ovate, a little rounded at the hase, the petioles prickly, 

 a little hairy and rather copiously setoso-ciliated. Stipules and bracts 

 naked on the back but setoso-ciliated. Peduncles naked. Calyx tube and 

 fruit ovate-urceolate or subglobose, the sepals somewhat tomentose towards 

 the edges and more or less gland-ciliated. The fruit ripening and the 

 sepals adhering just as in the preceding. Styles villose. This grows in 

 numerous stations in North Yorkshire, and there are specimens in Mr. 

 Watson's collection from Perthshire. As in the preceding there is a form 

 with the sepals glandular on the back, and there is a beautiful Rose which 

 grows at Keld, in Swaledale, with deep red flowers, slightly prickly pedun- 

 cles and sepals glandular on the back, which agrees with this in other 

 respects. The specimens of the plant of Woods which I have seen are 

 from Loch Tay, gathered by Mr. Borrer, to whose remarks in the British 

 Flora reference should be made. This plant has a subglobose calyx tube, 

 and some of the peduncles a little aciculate. 



11. R. Watsoni. R. hractescens /3 Woods. Leaves glabrous on the 

 upper surface, the teeth sharper and closer than in the next, not always 

 simple, the accessory serrations gland-tipped, somewhat hairy beneath, the 

 terminal leaflet ovate, the petioles villose but hardly at all setose. Stipules 

 and bracts nearly glabrous on the back, slightly setoso-ciliated, not 

 peculiarly large nor hiding the peduncle as in the next. Peduncle and 

 ovate-urceolate calyx tube naked. Sepals erecto-patent after the petals 

 fall, leaf pointed and fully pinnate, glandular all over the back. These 

 notes are taken from an authenticated specimen of the plant of Woods, 

 from Ambleside, Westmoreland, in Mr. Robertson's collection, and there 

 are specimens which agree with it amongst Mr. Watson's Roses, gathered 

 by himself by the roadside between Daliwhinnie and Etrisk in Inverness- 

 shire. It evidently connects the following and the preceding. 



12. R. coriifoUa, Fries. R. sepium, Swartz, non Thuill. R. 

 sepincola, Swartz. R. hractescens, Woods. R. frutetorum, Besser, Boreau. 

 Branches purple in exposure, prickles more slender and not so much 

 curved as in the normal plant. Leaves greyish-green above, rather thickly 

 hairy all over, paler beneath and softly hairy all over the underside, the 

 serrations simple, spreading, shallow, as broad as deep, the terminal 

 leaflet broadly ovate or obovate, rounded at the base, the petioles villose, 

 but hardly at all setose, furnished with one or two small prickles. Stipules 

 and bracts large, villose on the back, hardly at all gland-ciliated. Peduncle
