Treatment

Rubus fruticosus Linnaeus View in CoL , Species Plantarum 1: 493. 1753 View Cited Treatment , typ. cons.

"Habitat in sepibus praesertim maritimis Europae." RCN: 3760.

Conserved type (van de Beek in Meded. Bot. Mus. Herb. Rijks Univ. Utrecht 415: 59. 1974; Weber in Bot. Jahrb. Syst. 106: 293, f. 1. 1986): Herb. Linn. No. 653.9, inflorescence only ( LINN) .

Generitype of Rubus Linnaeus , nom. cons.

Current name: Rubus fruticosus L. View in CoL ( Rosaceae ).

Note: Rubus fruticosus , with the type designated by Weber, was proposed as conserved type of the genus by Jarvis (in Taxon 41: 573. 1992). This was eventually approved by the General Committee (see review of the history of this proposal by Barrie, l.c. 55: 795-796. 2006).

Rubus fruticosus has long been treated as an ambiguous name, and its type is identifiable with R. plicatus Weihe & Nees. Weber has provided a review, and restricted van de Beek’s (1974) type choice to the inflorescence only.
