172. ROSA. 



Serano Watson, Esq., the able curator of Dr. Gray's Herbariums at 

 Hai'vard, Mass., has lately published a "History and Eevision of the 

 Eoses of North America," and this necessitates additional notes and 

 corrections in our notice of this genus in Part I. 



(660.) R. Carolina, Linn. This species and the next have fre- 

 quently been confounded, but they are easily separated by their leaves, 

 and stipules, this species having " leaflets finely many toothed," while 

 in the next they are " coarsely toothed." None of our eastern speci- 

 mens are of this species, but all belong to the next. We have it only 

 from Ontario, and Mi-. Watson quotes it from Nova Scotia and New 

 Brunswick on my authority, which he clearly shows to be incorrect.
