R. laxa ReU. (Don's Mill., 2. p. 565.) is a native of Siberia with i co i 



red flowers, and oblong glabrous fruit; growing to the height of 3ft. 

 or 4 ft.

 at Tyra ; growing to the height of 6 ft. 



R. soongiirica Bunge (Don's Mill., 2. p. 566.) is a native of the 

 Soongarian Desert ; growing to the height of 6 ft. 



R. aristdta Lapey. (Fl. Pyr., 1 105.) is a native of the Pyrenees ;

R. macrophytta Lindl. Ros., p. 35. t. 6., and our fig. 521., is a native 

 of Gossainthan ; with red flowers, and villous fruit ; growing to the 

 height of 6ft. Judging from the figure of this rose in Lindley's 

 Rosarum Monographia, its bracteaj are very large and long, nearly 

 entire, naked, quite thin, and tinged with red ; and the sepals are 

 also very long, nearly triangular in shape, and simple, but dilated 

 and toothed at their extremities. Dr. Lindley observes of this 

 species : that it differs from R. alplna in the shape of its stipules, and 

 in its great bractea? ; that its leaves are the largest he has ever seen ; 

 that it cannot be confounded with any thing else; and that it may be 

 considered the link between Cinnamomeaz and Pimpinellifolia!.

R, Webbiana Wall. (Royle Illust., p. 208. t.42. f. 2.) is a native of Nepal; approaching R. spino- 

 sis/sima, but differs in the want of seta?, and in a tendency to convert the upper leaves into true 

 bracteas ; also, in the dark colour of its stem, which contrasts strongly with its white prickles. 



R. reclinata Red. Ros., 3. p. 79., is supposed to be a hybrid between R. ahpma and R. fndica ; with 

 lurid purple flowers ; of which there is a double-flowered variety.
