Pyrus auricularis, Knoop (P. irregularis, Muenchh. P. Pollveria, Linn. P. Bollwyleriana, DC.Sorbopyrus auricularis, Schneid.). Regarded as a hybrid of P. communis and Sorbua Aria;
was discovered about 1650 at Bollweiler, in Alsace: it bears very sparingly, and apparently does not come true to seed: to SO ft., with buds and branchlets tomentose: lvs. 3—4 in. long, elliptic, unequal and rounded at base, short-acuminate, irregularly and coarsely sharp-serrate or double-serrate, lower surface pubescent: fls. 5 or more in tomentose clusters, on slender pedicels; calyx-tube and lobes tomentose; styles 2-5: fr. 1 in. diam., pyriform, reddish yellow, sweet. Now and then planted in botanic gardens and elsewhere. B.R. 1437. L.B.C. 11:1009.—P. malifolia. Hort. (and Spach?) is probably a hybrid of similar or related origin.
