ROSACEA. 187 
Suz-Srecies XXX.—Rubus diversifolius. Lindley. 
Bab. Man. Brit. Bot. ed. v. p. 106. 
R. fusco-ater, Bad. olim. 
Barren stems arching-prostrate, angular, very sparingly hairy ; 
prickles numerous, unequal, spreading or slightly deflexed, from an 
elongate much compressed base; aciculi and gland-tipped setee 
numerous and unequal. Leaves of the barren stem quinate; 
leaflets sub-coriaccous, rugose above, paler and frequently felted 
beneath with short setose hairs on the veins, unequally or doubly 
dentate-serrate; terminal leaflet broadly oval or oval-obovate, 
- subcordate, acuminate; basal leaflets sub-sessile, imbricated, over- 
lapping the intermediate ones. 
In hedges. Not uncommon, and pretty generally distributed 
in England. 
England. Shrub. Summer. 
Judging from the two specimens in Mr. Borrer’s herbarium, 
which Professor Babington now considers as R. fusco-ater, there 
appears to me little difference between this and the preceding, but 
I have no other acquaintance with the plant. 
Various-leaved Bramble.
