The source I used is not entirely consistent, and in particular there seems to be some difference of opinion as the botanical authority. I've gone with Linnaeus by default (it's a very old plant) but the source gives "J. Herrm." Mangoe 19:46, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An author search on the IPNI website agrees with your other source, though it appears as if the standard botanical author abbreviation is Herrm. Unfortunately, IPNI didn't give a date. The APNI, however, lists the botanical authority as J.Herrm. I don't know which to believe! --Rkitko ^(talk) 14:03, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm slightly confused. Rosa moqueta is redirected to this page but the page Rosa rubiginosa says that rose is Rosa moqueta. 89.240.7.86 (talk) 19:52, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
