Near R. malifollus FOCKE ; but differs from it in having more acute or 

 even acuminate and usually tri-nerved leaves and cymose or even umbellate 

 flowers. In R. malifdius, the leaves are pinninerved and the flowers are in 

 racemes. This is also near R, Swmhoei HANCE, which differs from this plant 

 in having quite glabrous leaves, and not prickly pedicels and calyx ; also 

 distinguishable from R. sepcilantJws FOCKE by trinerved leaves and um- 

 l>ellate]y contracted racemes.
