Abstract

The nomenclature of some fossil homonyms of Rubus is additionally resolved. Fossil Rubus mucronatus Palamarev, being an illegitimate later homonym of extant Rubus mucronatus Seringe, is re-named as Rubus eubaticus nom. nov. Rubus ellipticus Pavlyutkin (fossil) is replaced by a new name Rubus primoricus nom. nov., because of the earlier homonym, Rubus ellipticus Smith (extant).
