142 Flora of Devon and Cornwall, by I. W. N Keys. 
This being a plant of the Northern counties {Bab. Man. 6th ed. p. 124) can 
scarcely be accepted as indigenous in this district without further corro- 
boration.- In Cyb. Brit. i. 355, its south limit is given as Cornwall, &c. ; 
whence it may be inferred that specimens from that county had been reported 
to Mr. Watson. In G.B.S., however, it is marked " o," implying that the 
habitats required confirmation.

In Journ. Bot. iv. 258 Mr. Briggs says of it, — " This [rose] seems to occur 
throughout Cornwall, for last season [1865] I collected it in the North and 
West of that county, and have this season gathered it between Helston and 
Lizard-point, and at MuUion."

later note {ib. v. 310) Mr. Briggs says he has found two or three 
bushes of the naked-peduncled variety in bushy spots on limestone
