ROSACEA. 221 
R. coriifolia, but the shape, vestiture, and serration of the leaves 
bear a greater resemblance to those of R. Watsoni. 
Leathery -leaved Briar. 
German, Ledderblattrige Rose. 
11. Rosa Watsoni. Baker. 
Baker, in Nat. 1864, p. 98. 
R. bractescens 3, Woods. 
*‘ Leaves glabrous on the upper surface, the teeth sharper and 
closer than in R. coriifolia, not always simple, the accessory serra- 
tions 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 R. coriifolia. 
Peduncle naked. Calyx-tube ovate-urceolate. Sepals erecto-patent 
after the petals fall, leaf-pointed and fully pinnate, glandular all over 
the back.’’—(Baker, J. c.) 
Ambleside, Westmoreland (Woods), and between Dalwhinnie 
and Etrisk, Inverness-shire (Mr. H. C. Watson). 
12. Rosa subcristata. Baker. 
Baker, in Nat. 1864, p. 97. 
R, tomentosa y, Woods. 
Stem arching; prickles stout, curved. Leaflets oval or elliptical, 
leathery, glaucous-green and glabrous above, more glaucous and 
glabrous beneath, sharply and irregularly or imperfectly doubly 
serrate, some of the smaller serratures gland-tipped; petioles with 
scattered hairs, gland-tipped setze, and a few prickles. Stipules and 
bracts glabrous, ciliated with gland-tipped sets. Pedicels naked, 
very short, shorter than the bracts. Styles woolly. Fruit turning 
scarlet early in September. Sepals glabrous or glandular on the 
outside, leaf-pointed, sparingly pinnate, more or less ciliated with 
gland-tipped setze, mostly adhering until the fruit is fully ripe. 
In hedges and thickets. Yorkshire, Cheshire, Northumber- 
land, Perthshire. 
Mr. Baker finds at Keld, in Swaledale, Yorkshire, a rose with 
deep red flowers, pedicels with a few gland-tipped aciculi, and 
sepals glandular on the outside, which in other respects agrees with 
his R. subcristata.
