Rosa arvensis var. ayreshirea Seringe is a single rose. Indeed the original Ayrshire (from 1768/69) as jedmar points out in his reply.
Seringe is referenced in De Candolle and takes priority over Neill. Even though it probably doesn't exist anymore, there can be no doubt that it is a single rose, apparently easily confused with either arvensis or sempervirens. See Sims, Lindley, Neill, Sabine, De Candolle and Don in their various writings.
In addition: Modern Roses 10 is inaccurate: The parents of the Ayrshire Queen (a lost dark red rose) are Blush Ayrshire and Tuscany, according to Rivers who himself bred the Ayrshire Queen in 1835.

Capriolata or Capreolata is good-old Ayrshire rose.
