status

IFPNI registration record:—FDB72262- F 9D4-448A-9 B 53-5 A 206344 FR.

Note:—The fossil-species Rubus brevis Nikitin (2007: 95) was established based on fossil fruits from Middle Miocene (Langhian) sediments of Western Siberia (Chernovsky village, Novosibirsk region, Russian Federation) with no suggested affinity to any living species of Rubus . The wide form of endocarps is very distinctive and has no direct analogue among extant and known fossil species. However, it is a later homonym of the extant species Rubus brevis Gremli (1870: 33) ( McNeill et al. 2012, Art. 53.1). Hence, a new replacement name is necessary for the fossil-species, Rubus laticarpus Doweld , nom. nov.
