3. R. rubella, Smith. Incognit. 



All the specimens we have seen under this name belong to spi- 

 nosissima except two, which are in Winch's collection in the 

 IS'ewcastle Museum, and are marked "Durham coast." The 

 fruit here is bright red and drooping, in the preceding much 

 stouter and rounder, deep purple in colour, and erect. Very 

 likely there has been some mistake in regarding these two speci- 

 mens as British, as the plant is not known elsewhere in the 

 country.
