Bush-fruits; a horticultural monograph of raspberries, blackberries, dewberries, currants, gooseberries, and other shrub-like fruits . ly, X~% inch.

Found in shady have not seen specimens, but it appears to agree with this sectionin the mucronate anthers, though perhaps lacking the sagittatebase. 11. R. LOBBii, Gray. (Fig. 85.) Shrub 2-5 feet (6 to 15 decimeters) high; branches rigid, zig-zag, without prickles, somewhat resembling those of B. Californi-cum. but the younger ones glandular pubescent, the older darkbrown, with scaly bark; thorns slender, mostly triple, varying incolor with the bark of the branch from which they emerge; leavesless than an inch (25 mm.) in diameter, round-cordate, 3-5-cleft,the roundish lobes obtusely toothed, minutely pubescent andglandular on both sides; peduncles long and slender, 1-2 flowered;pedicels short, nearly enclosed by the broad bract; flower pendu-lous, half an inch long beyond the ovary; calyx lobes lurid purple,pubescent on the outside; petals white, wedge-shaped, irregularly. Fig. 8->. llibes LohUi (XI). THE GOOSEBERBY OF TEE PLAINS 455 toothed at the summit, reaching half way to the base of the an-thers; style commonly 2-cleft, glabrous, together with the stamensabout equaling the calyx lobes in length; anthers double, short,broad and blunt; ovary and berry densely covered with very short,fine, glandular-tipped prickles or hairs, which extend to thepeduncles, petioles and other young parts of the plant. Found on the Pacific coast from northern California northward. In general appearance this species closely resembles L. sub-vestiium, Hook. & Am., and is the plant figured under that namein Bot. Mag. t. 4931. B. LohUi is distinguished by the absence ofprickles from the stems, its long filaments and short, blunt an-thers, and the shorter and finer, stiff, glandular hairs which coverits fruit.
