On a declivity by the Menai, near Bangor. T^ . G, 7. — Peduncles 

 setose. Dr. Lindley thinks it a var, of E. mollis: but this and the 

 two preceding seem to be but one species, only distinguishable from 

 E, sphiosissima by the scarlet not black fruit. As set^pass insensibly 

 into slender prickles or acicula^, the species possessing the one may 

 be expected to exhibit the other in some of its varieties; and the 

 greater or less number of eithercan form no specific distinction.
