Déséglise eet it with small but stout prickles, small 
leaflets, villous midribs and petioles, short smooth or 
weakly acteillins peduncles, hispid styles, white flowers, 
and ovoid or subrounded fruit. Ripart, in his key, gives 
it hay seticlen but not midribs, and associates it with 
or i. ©. ot glabrous and smooth peduncles. One 
of his two specimens has cso large prickles, large 
subcordate leaflets, quite glabrous midribs, and smooth 
glabrous peduncles. The other se similar prickles,
