New Flora of the British Isles, 3rd Edition

This page intentionally left blank

Since its first publication in 1991, New Flora of the British Isles has become established as the standard work on the identification of the wild vascular plants of the British Isles. The Flora remains unique in many features, including its full coverage of all British wild plants, its user-friendly organisation, and its specially compiled keys and descriptions. All native, naturalised and crop plants, and all casual plants recorded five or more times since 1930, are included. In the twelve years since the appearance of the Second Edition, many new data and ideas relating to British wild flora have become available. More than 160 species have been added to the text, so that 4800 taxa are now covered in varying degrees of detail. This is the first British Flora to incorporate the new molecular system of classification based on DNA sequences, a scheme that is expected to endure for centuries to come. The whole text has been updated and new features have been introduced. All the line-drawings and half-tones have been re-assessed and enhanced, and new ones have been added, so that now over 1600 species are illustrated on 180 pages. The distributions of all the taxa have been rewritten and there has been an overhaul of the designation of degrees of rarity, with the introduction of a third, less rare, category. These revisions should ensure that this Third Edition remains the essential reference source for all taxonomists, ecologists, conservationists, plant hunters and biogeographers, whether they be researchers, teachers, students or amateurs.

C L I V E A N T H O N Y S T A C E B.Sc., Ph.D., D.Sc. graduated from the University of London in 1959 and gained his doctorate at the Natural History Museum London in 1963. For the next 41 years he carried out research and teaching in the Universities of Manchester and Leicester, where he is now Emeritus Professor of Plant Taxonomy. His research mainly involved the taxonomy, biosystematics and cytogenetics of western European flowering plants. He has been a keen field botanist for over 60 years, and fieldwork was an important part of both his research and teaching programmes. He was President of the Botanical Society of the British Isles from 1987 to 1989. He has produced about 200 scientific papers and books, including Hybridization and the Flora of the British Isles (1975), Plant Taxonomy and Biosystematics (1980, 1989) and Interactive Flora of the British Isles (2004). He was elected Honorary Fellow of the Linnean Society in 2004.

FOREWORD A NOTE FROM AN ITINERANT BOTANIST by DAVID BELLAMY In my student days I was privileged to walk with some of the best field botanists in Britain, carrying a dented vasculum, a x20 lens, notebooks and a well-worn copy of the then newly available 'CTW'. A student colleague of mine was Clive Stace, who has now just completed the third edition of his New Flora of the British Isles. How time flies when you can talk with flowers using their proper names. CTW (Clapham et al. 1952, 1962, 1987) has been superseded by the New Flora, one of the most important features of which is an enormously increased coverage of the alien species that are sadly arriving on our shores in ever-larger numbers. CTW included a very modest number of aliens, but this element in our flora now needs our full attention and it is vital that we are able to identify these invaders correctly. Many of them are making themselves at home, altering our wild habitats in many ways, some with catastrophic results. Vast amounts of money are already being spent on the control of Japanese Knotweed and Himalayan Balsam, so what about the host of more recent arrivals, such as Guernsey Fleabane, which is now abundant on waste land in much of England? When it appeared in 1952 CTW had an enormous impact, supplying readily available information, generating enthusiasm, and pinpointing gaps in our knowledge. In those halcyon days a grounding in natural history was commonplace in schools, with scouts, guides, ramblers, natural history societies, WI and the Mothers Union also participating. Potential medics had to matriculate in Botany, and science students could read Honours Botany at most Universities. The New Flora has become the key authority in this field of endeavour, sadly at a time when extremely few Universities now offer courses in field botany or taxonomy, because the expertise to teach it no longer exists and because it is not a subject that generates much research income. The result is that our Universities are not training specialists in these fields, so new school teachers are also lacking in the requisite skills. This downward spiral must be stopped. The good news is that in this edition of the New Flora all the botanical data have been meticulously revised and brought up to date, adopting the new molecular system of classification at the family and genus levels. The molecular (DNA) classification contains many new and as yet unfamiliar features, but we all need to make the effort of getting to grips with it because it will undoubtedly endure for centuries to come, and it does indicate the true affinities of our plants. Although this is the first major work in this country to utilise the molecular system, Floras incorporating it are now appearing all over the world, so that it is becoming a real focus for a consensus in our taxonomic framework. To assist us in the transition the Synopsis of Families compares the old and new classifications. Those, like me, who find that line drawings are a boon when keying out species, will not be disappointed by this work of painstaking scholarship concerning all the plants that now grace these well botanised Isles. Over 1600 species are illustrated. Today there are many flower books containing super coloured pictures of our plants that form excellent companions to the New Flora, but sadly they are not reliable when used as the only method of identification.

FOREWORD

The New Flora covers over 4800 species and other lesser ranks. With it you will be able to put the correct Latin and English name to every weed you might encounter from the top of Ben Nevis down to the depths of the littoral zone of Britain, while learning of their virtues, jizz, distribution and rarity. Jizz is of great importance and is, despite New Flora, best learnt on a walk with fellow Field Botanists. So if you want to be counted among the real Botanists of the 21st Century this superb work of practical taxonomy is a must for your working library and your rucksack. I also hope that it will provide a wake up call to our education gurus to get our schools and universities to urgently train more field botanists and professional taxonomists. Without enough such practitioners in the field it will be impossible to understand the changes in the solar ecology that feeds the terrestrial food chains that include us. Bedburn, Co. Durham September 2009

PREFACE TO THIRD EDITION In the twelve years (to June 2009) since the appearance of the second edition, many new data and ideas relating to our wild flora have become available, and the third edition makes full use of these. Its main features are:

. . . . . . . . .

inclusion of more than 160 additional numbered species, mostly aliens but some natives such as Callitriche palustris and Cystopteris diaphana, plus many infraspecific taxa, hybrids and marginally wild taxa, producing a new total of about 4800 taxa covered in one way or other re-assessment and detailed enhancement by Margaret Stace of all the linedrawings and half-tones, producing much improved images review of the whole text, leading to innumerable corrections, clarifications and updates and the introduction of further improved features addition of several new half-tones and line-drawings, the latter executed by Rosemary Wise; over 1600 taxa are now illustrated on 180 pages rewritten distributions of all taxa, especially utilising information in New Atlas of the British and Irish Flora, including all the unprinted data on the CD-ROM that accompanies it, and in Reynolds (2002) for the Irish aliens complete overhaul of the designation of degrees of rarity (R, RR, RRR), using post-1987 data, with the introduction of a third, less rare, category indication of extinct native taxa (E), i.e. those not seen since 1980 thorough revision of the classification and nomenclature, both by the continued application of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature and, for the first time in a Flora of this region, the incorporation of the new molecular system of classification (APG III) primarily at family and genus levels use of desk-top publishing software, enabling copy to be delivered to the publisher in the form of PDFs rather than camera ready copy.

The number of additional aliens arriving in our area and requiring treatment in a comprehensive Flora shows no signs of abating. Horticultural species that become naturalised here are often originally planted under the name of a native species, but they originate from foreign seed and many in fact represent a different but closely related species (e.g. Crataegus rhipidophylla), or, if they are referable to one of our native species, they might represent a range of its variation which is not naturally found here (e.g. Cornus sanguinea ssp. australis, Lotus corniculatus var. sativus). Such plants present major problems of identification, and their numbers look set to rise steeply in the future, especially in such places as new roadsides or conservation and amenity areas. I have received the same level of help and support in preparing this third edition as I enjoyed when writing the first two. Special thanks are due to Arthur Chater for valuable discussions and sound help and advice over many years, to Jeanette Fryer and Tim Rich concerning the genera Cotoneaster and Sorbus respectively for making available to me their unpublished data and for providing me with leaves for illustrations of the extra taxa (by chance 18 in each genus), to Eric Clement for continued expert advice on alien plants, to Gwynn Ellis for again compiling the very full index and for exhaustively proof-reading most of the text, and to my wife Margaret for spending many hours painstakingly enhancing all of the figures and

preparing the PDFs. Rosemary Wise kindly prepared the additional line-drawings, as Hilli Thompson was unable to undertake this task. I am especially indebted to David Bellamy, my friend for more than 50 years, for kindly writing the Foreword in his own inimitable style. Many of those previously listed have continued to be of much assistance by answering queries, sending specimens, or pointing out errors or anomalies.

PREFACE TO FIRST EDITION In writing this book I have attempted to produce exactly the kind of Flora that for twenty to thirty years I have wanted for my own use. Such a Flora would be as complete, up-to-date and user-friendly as possible, would be selectively illustrated, and would be available at a reasonable price. No doubt many people will find camera-ready-copy of the sort utilised here less attractive than traditional type-setting, but the costs of the latter would have increased the price of the book very steeply without, in my opinion, increasing its utility in any way. Others might well decry the consistent use of English names (albeit completely subsidiary to the scientific Latin names), but I strongly believe that the study of wild plants by many more people with very diverse backgrounds is important if we are to convince the politicians that we must effectively conserve our native plant genetic diversity. For the same reason I have used fewer technical terms and fewer abbreviations of them than is usual in Floras; indeed, with hindsight I believe I should have used even fewer. None of the above, however, is to be seen in any way as compromising or diminishing the need for absolute accuracy. When it is necessary to use a greater magnification than a hand-lens, or to cut sections of an organ, in order to see the diagnostic features, I have never pretended otherwise. The lack of a means of magnifying objects above x20 in good illumination, or of the ability to measure accurately to within 0.1mm, not only prevents one from obtaining certain data but, more seriously, is a frequent cause of misinterpretation or mismeasurement of plants. The remedy is obvious, and no more expensive than are the essential tools of a photographer, ornithologist or golfer. The Flora is designed to enable field-botanists and those working with herbarium specimens to identify plants that are found in the wild in the British Isles. This is, I believe, a new criterion; more usually the origin and performance of plants are given higher significance when deciding where to draw the line between those to be included and those to be excluded. However, when one encounters a plant it is often not possible to know whether it is native or alien, or whether it has arrived accidentally or been planted, and one cannot know whether it will still be there next year! Hence a pragmatic approach has been adopted. The list of species included, as well as the data provided for each of them (especially their nomenclature and distribution), are as up-to-date as the information I possessed in October 1990 would allow. The decision to write this Flora was made in 1983, and the actual preparation of the text took almost seven years. This decision was made due to the collapse of plans by a group of taxonomists to write a multi-volume definitive or critical Flora of Great Britain and Ireland, which had been discussed over the period December 1973 to January 1985. In the early 1980s it became clear that this project would founder (just as a similar one did in the 1930s), and it is regrettably the case that the British Isles still lack a truly complete Flora. Much information (especially concerning aliens) used in writing the present book was originally obtained by me for the abandoned floristic project in the late 1970s. However, this Flora in no way replaces the latter. In the Acknowledgements I have tried to convey my indebtedness to all those who have helped me over the past 40 or more years and during the writing of this

book. Despite all their help I am aware that many imperfections remain, and doubtless errors will be uncovered as well. I should be very grateful to hear of those encountered by readers. If this Flora helps others to achieve anything approaching the degree of enjoyment and satisfaction that I have gained from the study of our wild plants, then it will have succeeded in its main aim.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This book certainly could not have been written without the assistance so readily given me by over 200 friends and correspondents over the past twelve years, quite apart from the help and encouragement I received for many years prior to that. Rather than make lame reference to people 'too numerous to mention', I have attempted to list all of those who have directly helped me. Their participation has ranged from essentially one-word answers to questions such as 'Is the Phyteuma spicatum naturalised in your area blue- or yellow-flowered?', to detailed advice on taxonomic problems, the provision of specimens, or careful proof-reading or factual checking of draft accounts. Others, mentioned elsewhere, have assisted in more specific ways, such as by preparing drawings. As well as thanking those who have directly helped in the preparation of this Flora, I wish to pay tribute to a number of people who have been instrumental in guiding me along the road to becoming a botanist. From the age of about 8 my parents actively encouraged my interest in natural history and helped to develop contacts with the local museum and societies in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. In my teens I received a tremendous amount of tuition and stimulation from Aline Grasemann (Tunbridge Wells Natural History Society) and Dik Shaw (my biology master). Our 'regional expert', Francis Rose, was also very influential, especially after the formation of the Kent Field Club in 1955. My first post-card from Miss Grasemann (dated 13th September 1953) reads: "If you are not doing anything else next Saturday what about coming over to the Dykes from Tonbridge Castle and seeing the Orange Balsam? And if you want to come and look anything up in 'Clapham' afterwards do." 'Clapham' (Clapham, Tutin & Warburg 1952) was to be a Christmas present from her three months later! In all my years at University, as both student and lecturer, I have been fortunate in working with many very clever and helpful people. I should especially mention my postgraduate supervisor, Arthur Exell, and one of my professors at Manchester, David Valentine. The other great source of inspiration to me has been the Botanical Society of the British Isles. In the fifties and sixties those of its members who were of particular help to me, both on excursions and by post, were Joan and Peter Hall, Douglas Kent, Ted Lousley, David McClintock and Ted Bangerter. Finally, my wife Margaret and sons Richard and Martin deserve special thanks. To someone who is totally addicted to field botany encouragement is both unnecessary and inappropriate, but their understanding and support have been crucial. Of all those who have assisted me during the writing of this book, a few demand particular mention. This project has been very much a joint project with my wife and it has absorbed much of her spare time over the past five years. She played a major role in the planning of the format and in proof-reading, and carried out all the inputting and the preparation of camera-ready copy. Douglas Kent, who has been preparing a new checklist of vascular plants of the British Isles in parallel with

PREFACE TO FIRST EDITION

xiii

my work, has given me the benefit of his vast knowledge of alien as well as native plants and of nomenclatural matters. He has corrected many nomenclatural errors in my drafts. Hilli Thompson has skilfully prepared the great majority of the linedrawings, patiently taking account of all my demanding and pernickety criticisms and requests for alterations. Peter Hall has painstakingly proof-read all the text, ensuring that there are many fewer mistakes and inconsistencies than would otherwise have been the case, and has helped in numerous places by drawing on his (and his wife Joan's) long field experience. Many people have advised me on alien plants, particularly on those that should and those that should not be treated by me, but by far the most help has been received from David McClintock and Eric Clement. Their knowledge of British alien plants is unparalleled, and they shared it freely with me. I am more indebted than I can adequately express to all the above for their generous co-operation.

PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION This second edition of New Flora of the British Isles incorporates the new information that has arrived in the six years (to September 1996) since the first edition was completed, corrects errors and ambiguities detected in the latter, and introduces a number of improved features. The most important changes are:

. . . . .

inclusion of c.320 additional taxa, including 129 fully treated at species level, so that now over 4600 taxa are covered in one way or another use of superior computer ware and laser-printing to produce higher quality camera-ready-copy, resulting in fewer pages despite the increase in text citation of chromosome numbers for all taxa where known standardisation of authority abbreviations with those listed in Brummitt & Powell (1992) provision of a full index down to subspecies level, including author citations and English names.

In addition, nomenclatural changes have been made where they have been shown to be necessary, but have been kept to a minimum; a slightly fuller treatment of Rubus, Euphrasia, Taraxacum and Hieracium has been provided; a number of extra figures have been added and others modified; the R/RR/RRR classification of rare plants has been updated; and the number of technical terms used throughout the book has been slightly reduced. Of the 129 extra species treated, one is a suspected native (Sorbus domestica), one results from a new monograph raising a subspecies to species rank (Arctium nemorosum), and the other 127 are aliens, both those now considered to be naturalised and those that now seem frequent enough as casuals. Many of these extra aliens were formerly included as 'other spp.' in the first edition, but their removal from that category has been more than compensated for by the addition of others. The reappraisal of the status of alien plants has been made possible by two recent publications (Clement & Foster 1994; Ryves, Clement & Foster 1996). As a result of this I believe that all currently naturalised plants are included in the Flora, and that at least a mention is made of all other aliens that have been recorded from more than 4 localities since 1930. I have received the same level of help and support in preparing the second edition that I enjoyed when writing the first. Duggie Kent, Peter Hall and Hilli Thompson deserve particular mention for their continuing roles, and I should also like to thank Gwynn Ellis for preparing the index to the second edition.

INTRODUCTION The following paragraphs are intended to explain the contents and arrangement of the Flora and the reasons for the various conventions adopted and decisions taken. TAXONOMIC SCOPE All vascular plants (pteridophytes, gymnosperms and angiosperms) are included, as is traditional in British Floras. The families (Lycopodiaceae, etc.) in which these are currently placed are listed in the Synopsis, and for the angiosperms the families are also grouped into orders (Nymphaeales, etc.). No formal taxa are given above the level of order, only informal ones (Lycophytes, etc.), due to the fluid nature of higher rank classification at the present time. Below the family level, genera, species, subspecies and sometimes varieties are recognised; subfamilies or tribes (both in the case of Fabaceae, Asteraceae and Poaceae) are defined only for those families with 20 or more genera. Below the genus level, subgenera or sections are defined only for those genera with at least 20 species. Apomictic microspecies are covered in full in most genera, but not for the three notorious genera Rubus, Taraxacum and Hieracium, for which specialist accounts already exist. In these genera a separation into relatively easily recognised groups of microspecies (here called sections) is provided instead. A full account of these genera would have greatly exceeded my own abilities and the scope of one volume. In addition to the above three problem genera, Ranunculus auricomus is an apomictic complex in which probably over 100 microspecies could be segregated; however, this complex has not been sufficiently researched in the British Isles to permit such a detailed treatment. The coverage of alien taxa has been as thorough and consistent as possible. Many more aliens are included than in any previous British Flora, yet a considerable number of aliens traditionally to be found in other Floras have been omitted. To merit inclusion here, an alien must be either naturalised (i.e. permanent and competing with other vegetation, or self-perpetuating) or, if a casual, frequently recurrent so that it can be found in most years. All this applies as much to gardenescapes and throwouts as to unintentionally introduced plants. Rarity, and the requirement of a highly specialised habitat, have not been taken into consideration (any more than is the case with natives). Extinct aliens are not treated. Cultivated species have been included if they are field-crops or forestry-crops or, in the case of trees only, ornamentals planted on a large scale. Exclusively garden plants, however abundant, whether crops or ornamentals, have not been covered, but most of the commoner taxa are included anyway because of their occurrence as escapes or throwouts. Also excluded are non-tree ornamentals planted en masse on new roadsides or in parks, etc. The aim of this re-vamped and expanded set of criteria is to include all taxa that the plant-hunter might reasonably be able to find 'in the wild' in any one year. Any such plant, whether native, accidentally introduced or planted, affects wild habitats and is part of the ecosystem, and botanists and others might be expected to need or want to identify it. Ornamental trees (but not shrubs or herbs) have been included because they are long-lived and frequently persist decades after all other signs of planting have disappeared from the area, so that the finder could not be expected to know that they were once planted. Doubtless, some additions to and removals from the list finally adopted are justified, but the

xviii

INTRODUCTION

selection of taxa is as judicious as it is largely due to the enormous help I have received from the many correspondents who have made alien plants their special study and who have generously given me the benefit of their advice. As well as the taxa treated 'fully' (i.e. keyed out, and provided with a numbered entry), other taxa that narrowly miss qualification, or fall far short of qualification despite their frequent inclusion in other Floras (often having become extinct), or have been erroneously included in the past, are also briefly mentioned. These are covered under families with a number followed by a letter (e.g. 11A), or under the headings 'Other genera' or 'Other spp.' that follow the keys to genera or species. All interspecific and intergeneric hybrids are included, but their level of treatment varies. Hybrids that have attained distributions no longer tied to those of their parents (i.e. those that occur at least sometimes in the absence of both parents) are treated exactly like species, except that the multiplication sign is inserted between the generic name and the specific epithet (e.g. Salix x rubens) and the parental formula is given (e.g. S. alba x S. fragilis). This has been normal procedure for some genera (e.g. Circaea, Mentha) in the past, but a consistent application of the criterion has resulted in many more such taxa being similarly treated. Other hybrids are placed in their appropriate systematic position, but are not keyed and are not provided with their own number; they always occur with at least one parent and their identity can usually be deduced because of this. They are provided with as much information as their situation appears to warrant. The only exception to the above is that some highly fertile hybrids that can occur in the absence of both parents (e.g. Geum, Hyacinthoides) are not treated as separate entities, since they form a spectrum of variation linking that of their parents. Reference must be made to the impressive Flora of Great Britain and Ireland being produced by Sell & Murrell (1996-2009) in five volumes, of which three have so far appeared (vols 3-5). This Flora, like the present one, is a project arising from the failure of the Critical Flora project of 1973-1985 referred to in the Preface to First Edition, but these two Floras even together do not amount to the Critical Flora RULJLQDOO\SODQQHG6HOO 0XUUHOO·V)ORUDSURYLGHVORQJYDOXDEOHGHVFULSWLRQVRIDOO the taxa, including all microspecies. In the first volume (5), published in 1996, the species covered were more or less the same as those in the relevant part of New Flora, but in the two successive volumes (4 in 2006, 3 in 2009) an increasing number of additional alien species has been included. These extra species nearly all fall into one of three categories: extinct aliens; rare or very rare casuals; and cultivated plants (especially trees and shrubs) that have not been found in the wild in the British Isles, or are very marginal. They all fall outside the criteria used for inclusion in New Flora. It is useful for herbarium workers to have access to data on extinct or very rare aliens, and for field workers to be aware of additional garden plants that they might encounter, but the criteria that were originally devised by me for New Flora have been carefully adhered to in all three editions, the last of which stands as an account of the species found in the wild in the British Isles at the start of the twenty-first century. GEOGRAPHICAL SCOPE This Flora deals with the British Isles, comprising Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales), Ireland (Northern Ireland and Eire), the Isle of Man, and the Channel Islands (Bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey). The Bailiwick of Guernsey includes Guernsey, Alderney, Sark, Herm and various lesser islands. The above are always referred to in their correct, strict senses, rather than loosely, except that a distinction between Great Britain and the Isle of Man is made only where necessitated by particular patterns of distribution. The United Kingdom (Great Britain and Northern Ireland) is not referred to in the text. The smallest geographical unit utilised is usually the vice-county. There are 111 of

these in Great Britain and 40 in Ireland, with the Isle of Man and Channel Islands representing two others. All 153 are mapped and listed on the end-papers. The Isles of Scilly (Scilly) are part of West Cornwall, but they have a distinctive flora and are therefore frequently referred to separately. STATUS AND DISTRIBUTION The status of each of the taxa in the British Isles is defined by one of the three categories Native, Archaeophyte, or Introduced, and in the last case three subcategories are recognised: Naturalised, Casual, or Survivor. All these terms are defined in the Glossary, and only archaeophyte requires further explanation. $UFKDHRSK\WHV DUH SODQWV WKDW DUH PRVWO\ DVVRFLDWHG ZLWK PDQ·V DFWLYLWLHV HJ weeds of cultivated ground) and have existed in the British Isles since at least medieval times, i.e. since before 1500 AD. Frequently it is uncertain whether the taxon concerned is actually native or introduced, and in many cases the use of the term largely expresses our ignorance in this respect. In this Flora I have slightly differed from some other works in the application of the term, because where a plant is known to have been introduced by man before 1500 (e.g. Castanea) I have treated it as introduced. Obviously many taxa that are native here are not native in every place in which they occur, and taxa that are naturalised somewhere in the British Isles are often not VRLQDOORIWKHLUORFDWLRQVLQVXFKFDVHVRQO\WKH¶KLJKHU·FDWHJRU\LVJLYHQ The sign E is placed in the right-hand margin for those native or archaeophyte taxa that are considered extinct in the British Isles (i.e. not seen since 1980), except that some of them still occur as introduced or casual examples. Distributions in the British Isles have been taken primarily from New Atlas of the British and Irish Flora (Preston et al. 2002), but a wide range of supplementary sources, notably including Reynolds (2002), has also been utilised. Endemic or extinct taxa are indicated in the text. The distributions are given in as concise a form as possible, with strict adherence to the definitions of the politico-geographical units referred to in the previous paragraph. Foreign distributions are given for introduced species, but these statements do not necessarily cover the entire range of a taxon, but rather those areas from which our plants most likely originated. CLASSIFICATION The classification of vascular plants most widely accepted at any one time has changed radically over the past two centuries, as the amount and nature of available data have increased. During the nineteenth century the system of Bentham & Hooker was most favoured. During the twentieth century this became increasingly modified to produce a less artificial, more natural, system, that of Cronquist (1981) ultimately being most widely championed and the one that was followed in the first two editions of this Flora. From the late 1990s onwards, however, our ideas on plant relationships (and therefore classification) have been revolutionised by the use of molecular data, mostly the base sequences of certain regions of DNA. Whilst this has largely confirmed previous ideas on the circumscription of most families, some unexpected novel features have emerged (e.g. the dismemberment of the Scrophulariaceae), and there are even more divergences in family relationships from those expressed in the pre-molecular systems, which demand a re-sequencing of the families. Many changes at the generic level are also indicated, e.g. the separation of Ficaria from Ranunculus. A radically new classification should not be adopted lightly, but the nature of the data now being utilised is such that it seems that classifications based on them will robustly stand the test of time. The need for all botanists to come to terms with the new classification, set out in Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (2009) as the third (and current) edition of the APG classification (known as APG III), is surely evident.

INTRODUCTION

The angiosperm family circumscriptions and sequence adopted in this third edition are based on those in APG III and LAPG III respectively, the latter being the linear sequence of families derived from the former phylogenetic analysis (Haston et al. 2009). The few divergences from these that I have adopted are aimed at maintaining families that are recognisable morphologically, and at producing a system that remains as familiar as possible with its users. Such conservative measures, however, have been pursued only to a degree that falls short of transgressing the fundamental principles of molecular taxonomy. In terms of taxon circumscription, the vast majority of the taxa are monophyletic (see Glossary), and no known polyphyletic taxa are recognised, but a few paraphyletic taxa (Araceae, Caprifoliaceae, Plantaginaceae) are tolerated where the segregate taxa (e.g. Lemnaceae, Valerianaceae, Callitrichaceae) are very distinctive and do not easily fit in with the paraphyletic taxon from which they are separated. I consider this interpretation to be theoretically sound (Stace 2009). Some probably polyphyletic taxa remain, especially at genus level (e.g. Anemone, Lysimachia, Senecio), but these have been left intact pending the acquisition of more conclusive evidence. In terms of family sequence, the monocotyledons have been placed at the end of the dicotyledons, not between two groups of the latter as in the current APG schemes, because this much more familiar arrangement is no less correct on theoretical grounds (Hawthorne & Hughes 2008). The new sequence of families is presented in the Synopsis. In order to put the recent changes into perspective, changes from the system adopted in editions 1 & 2, and deviations from the APG system, are summarised in the right-hand column. The family sequence adopted for the pteridophytes is taken from Smith et al. (2006). NOMENCLATURE The articles of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature have been applied rigorously. The writing of the first edition of this book coincided with the preparation by Douglas Kent (Kent 1992) of a new standard list of vascular plants of the British Isles, replacing that of Dandy (1958). Similarly, preparation of the second edition coincided with that of the first supplement to Kent's List (Kent 1997). I benefited greatly from my colleague's nomenclatural expertise and from the results of his research during that time, and have greatly missed our continued collaboration since his death in 1998. A limited list of synonyms is provided. These are the accepted names used in Dandy (1958), Clapham et al. (1962, 1987, but not 1952), and Tutin et al. (1964-1980, 1993), and those used in the post-1970 British literature (including editions 1 & 2 of WKHSUHVHQWZRUN.HQW·VList and its Supplements, and Sell & Murrell (1996-2009)) and in Walters et al. (1984-2000). This selection should enable the reader to equate the names used in this work with those in virtually any standard modern reference. The abbreviations of authors used are those in Brummitt & Powell (1992), a standard now universally adopted. English names are given for all the species. I am quite convinced that the provision of English names is important in increasing the numbers of people with an interest in and knowledge of wild plants. Despite the fact that the Latin names are scientifically more meaningful and in my view always preferable, English names, if consistently and logically applied, can be no less accurate and their use by those who find them easier to remember should not be too strongly disparaged. In all but a few cases I have used the names adopted in Dony et al. (1986), but well over 1000 species that I have included are not listed in that work. Many sources have been consulted in order to find suitable English names for these other species; the American, Australasian, South African and horticultural literature was especially helpful. However, about 400 names have been, of necessity, coined anew.

DESCRIPTIONS The descriptions of all the taxa are brief diagnoses providing what I consider to be the most important characters, and they have been made as consistent and comparable as possible. The data provided in the family descriptions cover all the genera treated as well as 'Other genera', and the data in the generic descriptions likewise cover 'Other spp.' as well as the fully treated species. However, it is important to note that no account of variation outside the British Isles is taken; indeed, it is specifically excluded, and the reader must beware of using the descriptions as definitions of the taxa on a world-wide or even European scale. In order to compile a description of a genus, the generic diagnosis should be read in conjunction with the family diagnosis. Species and subspecies descriptions should likewise be supplemented by the family and the generic diagnoses and the key to species (where provided). For reasons stated later on, however, it could be misleading to use the family and generic keys in order to compile descriptions. No generic description is given if there is only one genus included in the family, subfamily or tribe, as in these cases the description of the latter would be the same as that of the former. In compiling the descriptions I have naturally made use of a very wide range of literature. I have attempted to avoid the repetition of errors thereby encountered by checking most of the measurements and other characters on actual specimens. I have examined material of virtually all the species covered in this work, most of it in the fresh state. I have grown (or allowed to grow, or failed to prevent from growing) about a quarter of the species in my own garden; these, and others in other gardens (including the University of Leicester Botanic Garden) and locally in the wild, I have been able to observe closely over the changing seasons. Many measurements given, especially those describing plant heights or lengths, should be prefixed 'normally', 'usually' or 'mostly'. It is often misleading to give ranges including the extremes that have been encountered (e.g. a grass species 2153cm high); usually the normal range is much more useful. More exceptional measurements are often given in brackets, e.g. 3-6(9)cm, but even these do not always represent the extremes. In the case of trees, however, the maximum heights known in the British Isles are given, taken from Mitchell (1982), although this is now rather out of date. Measurements given without qualification are lengths; those separated by a multiplication sign (e.g. 3-6 x 1-2cm) are lengths and widths respectively. Certain conventions in terminology will become apparent after usage, especially if the Glossary is consulted. For example, 'above' and 'below' are used only to imply the upper and lower parts of a plant; upper and lower surfaces of an organ are referred to as 'upperside' and 'lowerside', or sometimes more specifically as adaxial and abaxial sides. The term 'leaf', unless otherwise stated, refers to the leaf-blade, excluding the petiole; this fact is especially important in the case of leaf length/ breadth ratios. Sporophytic chromosome numbers (written as 2n=) have been included for most species. The primary source for these has been the inventory of chromosome numbers of mainly native plants available from the website of the Botanical Society of the British Isles. This is based on material of known wild origin in the British Isles. I have supplemented those data where no counts from the British Isles are available by including counts of foreign or cultivated material (clearly distinguished - see Signs and Abbreviations) compiled from the standard published chromosome indices, most now available on the website of the Missouri Botanical Garden. I have usually not added any of the many counts from abroad differing from those from our islands. Sometimes the data available have been simplified by omitting reference to rare variations or to the existence of B-chromosomes. Despite some criticism, I have not included flowering seasons in the descriptions,

INTRODUCTION

as I consider them to be as often misleading as helpful. For example, Silene dioica, which is given as flowering in May and June in Clapham et al. (1952, 1962, 1987), can be found in flower every day of the year in Leicestershire, and in the Scottish mountains it does not commence flowering until July. IDENTIFICATION KEYS The primary means of identification is the keys to families, genera, species and subspecies. The great majority of these are dichotomous keys. In order to save space no line-gap is left between couplets, but alternate couplets are slightly indented to effect visual separation. Despite this appearance all the dichotomous keys are of the bracketed version, which I consider to be generally superior to (i.e. easier to use than) the indented type followed by some Floras. In constructing the keys I have attempted to avoid as many as possible of the pitfalls that I have personally encountered over the years. Keys are a vital part of a Flora, yet are one of the most difficult aspects to master and they provide a frequent barrier for the beginner. Long keys are particularly daunting, so I have subdivided keys wherever necessary by providing a general key to a series (A, B, etc) of supplementary keys. Hence few keys contain more than 20 couplets and very few more than 30. In a small number of genera multi-access keys are used instead of or as well as dichotomous keys (e.g. Epilobium, Sorbus, Cotoneaster). These are usually cases where some diagnostic characters are difficult to observe or are likely to be misinterpreted, so that it is hazardous to rely upon them in isolation (as often encountered in a couplet), or where aspects of the plant observable at different times of the season are important. In other cases 'difficult' characters are allowed for by providing two or more routes in a key. For example the (superior) ovaries of Rosa are liable to be wrongly scored as inferior, the (five) leaflets of Lotus are often mistaken for three plus two stipules, and the (white) petals of Berteroa often fade to yellow when dried. In these and in many other cases both alternatives are allowed for. A consequence of this is that the 'information' given in a number of keys to families and genera is sometimes strictly inaccurate. These keys are provided solely for the purposes of identification, and should not be used to compile descriptions of taxa. The keys to species and subspecies, however, should be free of any such misleading data, and can be considered as part of the description of the species and subspecies. Some notoriously difficult characters (e.g. aerial stems present/absent in Viola; inflorescences axillary/terminal in Trifolium; structure of the throat of the corolla-tube in Boraginaceae) have been deliberately largely ignored in the keys. No species key is provided if the genus includes only two species, and no subspecies key if a species contains only two subspecies; in both cases the two taxa are immediately adjacent and no key is needed. The keys to families include all the families not fully treated (e.g. 101A. Clethraceae) and take full account of all the genera mentioned in certain families under 'Other genera'; likewise, the keys to genera take account of all the species mentioned in certain genera under 'Other spp.'. I have assumed that the reader is familiar with the use of dichotomous and multiaccess keys, but I provide here some hints that I have found very valuable in the past. The keys are intended for use both indoors and in the field, and with both fresh and dried material. However, certain characters are not suited to field observation and, where special dissection or high magnification is absolutely necessary, no pretence is made that less satisfactory characters will suffice. The use of insufficient magnification is a frequent cause of misidentification. Before starting on the keys it is important to examine in detail the structure of the flowers, making sure that the number, shape and arrangement of the various parts are fully ascertained. If the flowers are not all bisexual then the distribution of the sexes

must be understood. The structure of the gynoecium usually presents the greatest problems; sectioning with a razor-blade vertically and transversely is often required. If fresh material is being collected, observations on underground parts, woodiness of stems and range of leaf-shape should be recorded. If possible, flowers (and fruits) of varying ages should be gathered. Mistakes are often made in distinguishing between a compound leaf (no buds in axils of leaflets) and a group of simple leaves (with buds, often very rudimentary, in axils). In general, flowers are needed for identification by means of the keys, but there are some exceptions such as near the start of the General Key and in Keys A and B of the Key to Families of Angiosperms, and in some of the keys to the genera of Poaceae. The recent book by Poland & Clement (2009) attempts to remedy this. Apart from non-flowering material, it is usually not possible to key out a range of abnormalities such as extreme horticultural variants (e.g. flore pleno or otherwise with more floral parts than usual, extremely dissected leaves or petals, unusual colour variants), abnormally tall or dwarfed plants, monstrosities such as manyheaded Plantago and leafy-stemmed Taraxacum, plants with petaloid or leafy bracts, gall-induced variations, and various odd mutants (e.g. Fraxinus leaves with one leaflet). In the wild such plants usually occur with normal ones. Finally, four tips. Firstly, before using a key to genera read carefully the family description and any notes that follow it, and before using a key to species read carefully the genus description and any subsequent notes. These descriptions and notes always contain useful data and sometimes vital ones, since special terms and conventions (e.g. 'spikelet length' in Festuca is not actually the total spikelet length) are often defined. Secondly, read the whole of both alternatives of each couplet before attempting to choose between them. Thirdly, if there is genuine doubt about which alternative to choose, follow both, as usually one will soon show itself to be unsuitable. Fourthly, if a nonsensical answer is obtained, check back to ensure that the frequent error of choosing the correct alternative but following the wrong subsequent route has not been committed. ILLUSTRATIONS Some sort of illustration is provided for about half of the numbered taxa. The page on which each occurs is indicated in bold in the right-hand margin of the text. The purpose is not to picture a representative sample of the taxa, but (1) to provide drawings of (mostly alien) species for which ready sources are not available in the literature; and (2) to illustrate diagnostic parts (e.g. seeds, leaves, flowers) of more critical groups of taxa on a comparative basis. The illustrations are either line drawings or photographs. The former have mostly been executed by Hilli Thompson, to whom I am greatly indebted for the tremendous trouble she has taken to capture accurately the minute detail of the specimens. However, the choice of subject-matter, the supply of material, and the checking of accuracy, was carried out by me, and if there are faults in those respects they are my responsibility. The few drawings not made by Hilli Thompson are all attributed and acknowledged in the appropriate caption. Rosemary Wise contributed the additional drawings required for this third edition. Other artists who made drawings especially for this Flora and to whom I offer my sincere thanks are Dick Roberts (40, 873), Jerzy Zygmunt (364), Kery Dalby (494), Olga Stewart (647, 648, 649, 652, 653), Fred Rumsey (661), and Sue Ogden (1085-1088). The photographs, most of them taken via the light microscope or scanning electron microscope, have been prepared by me or on my behalf by various colleagues in the School of Biological Sciences, University of Leicester, except in the few cases specifically acknowledged. I am extremely grateful for the help in this respect given me by Abdul-Karim Al-Bermani, John Bailey, Jenny Haywood, George McTurk, Ian Riddell and Andrew Scott. Additional SEMs required for this

CONSERVATION AND RARITY By far the greatest threat to our wild flora is the destruction of habitats, still continuing at a most alarming rate in the name of everything from 'agricultural policy' and 'economic development' to 'leisure activity'. When populations of plants (or animals) are decimated they become highly vulnerable to secondary pressures, of which collecting is one. There can be little objection to the accumulation of a reference collection of plants, providing uncommon species are excluded and populations of even common ones are not significantly reduced. Indeed, a collection of accurately determined plants is the best way of learning them and of enabling identification of extra species encountered later. Often, however, only a small part of the plant (e.g. a basal leaf or a single flower) is needed for diagnostic purposes. Rarely are underground parts essential, and, even where they are, these can usually be adequately substituted by notes made in the field. It should be noted that in Great Britain it is actually illegal under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 to uproot any wild plant, even common weeds, without the land-owner's permission, and the Act specifies more detailed regulations governing Nature Reserves and rare species contained in the Schedule of Protected Plants (updated by quinquennial reviews). Under the Act it is an offence to pick, remove or destroy any part (including seeds) of the species in the Schedule, to attempt to do so, or to trade in these species. For practical purposes the species marked RRR should be those so treated. Other Acts cover Eire and Northern Ireland. Since it is only botanists who have a good knowledge of our wild flora, it is vital that they consider themselves under a special obligation to protect it by example and by persuasion. Rare taxa are referred to in this Flora under three categories, marked by R, RR and RRR in the right-hand margin; no plants in any of these categories should be collected, damaged or disturbed (e.g. by trampling, or by 'arranging' the immediate surroundings during photography). Even taxa not so marked are frequently rare in some areas (e.g. montane species in the south); where they are rare they should be respected as much as species that are rare throughout the British Isles. The 'R' signs of rarity are given for only native taxa and archaeophytes; hybrids not treated fully and aliens are not designated. Many taxa that are rare as natives are much commoner as aliens; only the native (or archaeophyte) distribution is considered for present purposes. The precise meanings of these signs are as follows: R - Uncommon, found in not more than 250 different 10 x 10km grid-squares in the British Isles (there are 3859 of these grid squares in total) since 1987. RR - Scarce, found in not more than 100 different 10 x 10km grid-squares in the British Isles since 1987. RRR ² Rare, found in not more than 15 different 10 x 10km grid-squares in the British Isles since 1987. These three lists have been compiled from the raw data obtained during the surveys carried out for New Atlas of the British and Irish Flora (Preston et al. 2002), kindly made available by the Biological Records Centre, an up-to-date source providing a far more accurate summary than was possible in the earlier editions of this Flora. Useful discussions of nearly all the taxa in the RR and RRR categories above are to be found in Stewart et al. (1994) and Wiggington (1999).

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK Before consulting the information in this Flora, it is strongly recommended that the Contents, the Introduction and this page (including the reverse of it) be read carefully. The Index at the end of the book should be used in order to look up a family, genus, species, subspecies or hybrid; both Latin and English names are indexed. In order to identify a vascular plant it is necessary first to decide whether it is a pteridophyte, gymnosperm or angiosperm. Many Floras purport to do this by means of keys, but in reality the questions posed (e.g. plant reproducing by spores; ovules enclosed in a carpel) amount to the same as the decision called for here. In practice it is best to become familiar with the range of form and structure found in the relatively few pteridophytes and gymnosperms, all other vascular plants being angiosperms. In the case of pteridophytes, the few that do not have divided fernlike leaves can easily be learnt and, in the case of gymnosperms, all have simple narrow leaves (except Araucaria) and woody female cones (except Taxus and Juniperus). It is especially crucial to distinguish between superficially similar but unrelated plants that provide pitfalls for the unwary. Well-known examples are mosses and Lycophytes; Equisetum and Hippuris; Lemna and Azolla; Isoetes and Littorella; Pilularia and Juncus; and Alnus and conifers. If flowers, spore-bearing sporangia or woody cones are evident, then the task is an easy one. If not, familiarity and experience will soon prevent one from falling into traps such as the above. According to the decision, follow the generic or family keys starting on pages 1, 41 and 56, the positions of which are marked by black-edged pages. These will lead to a family or genus, which will provide further keys as necessary, enabling one to arrive at the genus, species and subspecies. Where relevant, keys to genera are given under each family, to species under each genus, and to subspecies under each species. Before using the keys the appropriate part of the introductory chapter (pp. xxii-xxiii) should be studied. The arrangement of the information given in each species account is as follows: 1. Accepted Latin Name Author(s) (Synonyms Authors) - English Name. Brief description to give habit and comparative diagnostic features, not always repeating those in species key; chromosome number. Status; most characteristic habitats; distribution in BI; area of most likely origin if not native. Illustrations are numbered according to the page on which they appear, not in a sequence from 1 onwards. References to illustrations are given in the right-hand margin adjacent to the relevant taxon by sole means of a bold number. Rarity and extinction status are similarly referred to in the margin by means of R, RR, RRR and E. For the precise meaning of these symbols, see pp. xix and xxiv. A glossary is placed after the systematic accounts (marked by a black-edged page). Signs and abbreviations are listed on the next page. Maps and a ruler are provided on the front and end covers.

PTERIDOPHYTES

FERNS & FERN-ALLIES A diverse grouping once treated as a single taxon. Herbaceous plants with very varied habit and leaf structure. Homosporous or rarely heterosporous. Sporangia borne either in cones or in groups on normal foliage leaves or on specialised leaves or specialised parts of foliage leaves. Gametophyte of homosporous species usually free living, green and photosynthetic, sometimes subterranean and mycorrhizal; gametophytes of heterosporous species much reduced and retained within spore. Here divided into 4 informal groups (Lycophytes, Eusporangiate ferns, Calamophytes, Leptosporangiate ferns).

F. verna Huds. (Ranunculus ficaria L.) - Lesser Celandine. Glabrous ascending perennial to 25cm; basal leaves ovate, cordate, with long petiole; flowers 10-30(50) mm across; sepals not reflexed; achenes c.2-5mm, shortly hairy, smooth, with very short beak.

Ssp. fertilis (Lawalrée ex Laegaard) Stace (Ranunculus ficaria var. fertilis A.R. Clapham nom. nud., ssp. fertilis Lawalrée ex Laegaard). Tubers not formed in leafaxils; full head of ripe achenes usually produced; achenes mostly 2.5-3.5 x 1.72.2mm; petals mostly 10-20 x 4-9mm; 2n=16 (diploid); mean no. chloroplasts per stomatal guard-cell c.13-17. Native; throughout BI. b. Ssp. verna (Ranunculus ficaria ssp. bulbilifer Lambinon, ssp. bulbifer Lawalrée nom. illeg., var. bulbifera Marsden-Jones nom. illeg.). Tubers formed in leaf-axils after anthesis; 0 or few (rarely >6) ripe achenes produced in each head; petals mostly 6-11 x 2-5mm; 2n=32 (tetraploid); mean no. chloroplasts per stomatal guardcell c.24-28. Native; almost throughout BI, but apparently absent from Shetland and CI. c. Ssp. ficariiformis (F.W. Schultz) B. Walln. (Ranunculus ficaria ssp. ficariiformis (F.W. Schultz) Rouy & Foucaud). Tubers formed in leaf-axils after anthesis; full head of ripe achenes usually produced; achenes mostly 4-5 x 2.5-3.5mm; petals mostly 17-26 x 4-12mm; 2n=32 (tetraploid).

Ssp. chrysocephala (P.D. Sell) Stace (Ranunculus ficaria ssp. chrysocephalus P.D. Sell). Tubers not formed in leaf-axils; full head of ripe achenes usually produced; achenes mostly 3-4 x 2-2.5mm; petals mostly 18-25 x 9-15mm; 2n=32 (tetraploid). Intrd-natd; garden escape so far found natd only in Herts but probably overlooked; E Mediterranean. Other differences between the sspp. are less reliable. Ssp. fertilis tends to have larger flowers with wider petals and larger, entire (not shallowly lobed) leaves than ssp. verna. Both sspp. occur commonly almost throughout BI, but locally 1 may be absent or much less common than the other. Habitats of the 2 do not differ overall, but locally their occurrence is often mutually exclusive. Ssp. verna is less common in Ir and W & extreme N Br, but in E Br is less tolerant of open conditions. Triploids (2n=24), recognised by extremely small flowers, total sterility, usually 0 (rarely few) axillary tubers, and c.20-22 chloroplasts per stomatal guard-cell, occur widely, usually close to diploids or tetraploids or both, and are probably hybrids. Ssp. ficariiformis is usually recognisable by its large size, but poorly grown or latedeveloping plants fall well within the size range of ssp. fertilis. The same is probably true of ssp. chrysocephalus.

A very variable and little understood sp.; up to 8 spp. or sspp. have been segregated in Br, based mainly on characters of fruit, habit and indumentum, but until properly investigated they are not worth recognising. The most distinctive are plants with glaucous leaves with dense stalked glands on lowerside that occur on coastal dunes in W & N Br; they have been called ssp. arenarium (Butcher) A.R.

Subgenus 6 - RUBUS (sections 1-4). Stems woody, biennial (to perennial), usually stoloniferous, usually with strong prickles and acicles; rhizomes 0; leaves palmate; fruits usually black, sometimes red, not readily separating from receptacle. R. ulmifolius is a sexual diploid with 2n=14, but all other microspp. are facultative apomicts (mostly tetraploids but also triploids, pentaploids, hexaploids and heptaploids) that require pollination in order to produce even apomictic seed. Sexual seed can also be produced, and hybridisation is common. 334 microspp. are currently recognised. Although abundant and characteristic of much of C & S BI, this subgenus is much less common in Sc; only c.16 microspp. reach Outer Hebrides and no native ones reach Orkney or Shetland. 12. R. sect. 1 Rubus (sect. Suberecti Lindl.). Variously intermediate between European R. fruticosus agg. and diploid species such as R. idaeus (red fruits) (subgenus Idaeobatus) and the North American R. allegheniensis Porter (black fruits) (sect. Rubus); stems usually suberect, often not rooting at tips, with weakly to well developed prickles and varying quantities (mostly few) of pricklets, acicles, stalked glands and hairs; suckers often produced from roots; leaflets (3)5(-7), usually not overlapping, the basal ones usually stalked; stipules linear-filiform; flowers mostly in racemose inflorescences, white to pink; fruit red to black, without glaucous bloom; 2n=21, 28, 42. Native; sunny and partly shaded places; throughout BI, mostly En and Wa, only 7 microspp. in Ir, 4 in Sc, 3 in Man, 1 in CI; 7 endemic. 4 of the microspp. (R. fissus Lindl., R. nessensis Hall, R. plicatus Weihe & Nees and R. scissus W.C.R. Watson) are probably among the 9 most widely distributed of the

subgenus in BI. 20 microspp. currently placed here, incl. the natd N American spp. R. canadensis L. and R. allegheniensis. A natural recent hybrid between R. idaeus and R. fruticosus agg. was recorded from Berks in 1922, it had stems rooting at the tips and red fruit tasting of raspberries and separating from the receptacle (not so in subgenus Rubus). R. loganobaccus (q.v.) and more recent crop species (e.g. Tayberry, Boysenberry) are also of similar parentage. 13-23. R. sect. 2 Glandulosus Wimm. & Grab. (subsect. Hiemales E.H.L. Krause; R. fruticosus L. agg.) - Bramble. Stems procumbent to arching, (potentially) rooting at tips, with well-developed prickles and varying quantities of pricklets, acicles, stalked glands and hairs; roots not producing suckers; leaflets (3)5(-7), usually not overlapping, the basal ones usually stalked; stipules linear-filiform; flowers in compound or racemose inflorescences, white to pink or red; fruit black, without glaucous bloom. Native; all sorts of habitats both natural and man-made, but much less common on calcareous soils; throughout BI, but very local in N Sc. Very variable; almost all characters of inflorescence and vegetative parts are of value in distinguishing the microspp. and series, but probably the indumentum and armature are the most important. 289 microspp. are currently placed here. 13. R. series Sylvatici (P.J. Müll.) Focke (sect. Sylvatici P.J. Müll., subsect. Virescentes Genev.). Stems arching or procumbent, glabrous to hairy; usually without stalked glands or acicles; prickles confined to angles of stem; stalked glands (but 0 acicles) sometimes present in inflorescence; leaflets ± green and variously hairy but not tomentose on lowerside; 2n=21, 28, 42. Throughout BI, 8 microspp. reaching Sc, 3 reaching CI; c.41 endemic. 61 microspp. currently placed here. The alien R. laciniatus Willd. (origin unknown), with distinctive dissected leaves, is grown for its fruits and is frequently natd over most of BI. R. lindleianus Lees is 1 of the most widespread microspp. in the subgenus in BI. 14. R. series Rhamnifolii (Bab.) Focke (subsect. Discoloroides Genev. ex Sudre). Stems arching or procumbent, glabrous to hairy; usually without stalked glands or acicles; prickles confined to angles of stem; stalked glands (but 0 acicles) sometimes present in inflorescence; leaflets greyish-white-tomentose on lowerside; 2n=28. Throughout BI, 13 microspp. reaching Sc, 5 reaching CI; c.28 endemic. 43 microspp. currently placed here, incl. the alien R. elegantispinosus (Schumach.) H.E. Weber, from Europe. R. nemoralis P.J.

Br N to SW Sc, S Ir, CI; 2 microspp. endemic. 4 microspp. currently placed here; R. sprengelii Weihe with the distribution of the series, the other 3 only in S En. 16. R. series Discolores (P.J. Müll.) Focke (sect. Discolores P.J. Müll.). Stems often scrambling, glabrous to hairy, without stalked glands or acicles; prickles confined to angles of stem; stalked glands and acicles 0 in inflorescence; leaflets chalkywhite-tomentose on lowerside; 2n=14, 21, 28, 35, 49. Throughout most of BI, 2 microspp. reaching Sc, 3 reaching Ir, 2 reaching CI; 5 endemic. 11 microspp. currently placed here, incl. the alien R. armeniacus Focke (R. procerus auct.), from Europe, much grown for its fruit as cv. 'Himalayan Giant'. R. ulmifolius Schott (R. inermis auct. non Pourr.) is the only diploid and only wholly sexual sp. of subg. Rubus in BI. It is widespread in BI, especially on chalk and clay where few other spp. occur, and hence is the commonest sp. in several areas incl. CI. It hybridises with many other spp. as pollen parents; hybrids may be fertile or sterile. It is easily

Native; sparse basic grassland, rocky places and crevices on mountains; very local in Sc, NW Wa and N En S to Derbys. 11 x 12. P. crantzii x P. tabernaemontani (= ?P. x beckii Murr) might be the identity of intermediate plants in MW Yorks, S Aberdeen and Cheviot, the last far from either species. Intermediacy is shown in stipule-shape, flower-size and growthhabit; 2n=61-64. 12. P. tabernaemontani Asch. (P. neumanniana auct. non Rchb., P. verna auct. non L.) - Spring Cinquefoil.

1. OXALIS L. - Wood-sorrels Most bulbous spp. are trimorphic and self-incompatible, and reproduce mainly or wholly vegetatively. The different clones may show morphological differences, but those present in BI represent only a small part of their whole range and a relatively broad view of sp. limits is taken here. Many spp. are only marginally natd, occurring ± wholly in cultivated ground, but can be very persistent. Corolla colours given are those in the fresh state; after drying the red/pink colours often fade or become more bluish. 1 1 3 3 5 5

15-20. E. esula L. agg. Glabrous, rhizomatous perennials; stems erect; leaves linear to lanceolate or oblanceolate, sessile, entire; capsules granulose near midline of each valve, glabrous; seeds smooth. A very difficult group of (in Br) 3 spp. and their 3 hybrids, all of which are fertile. Virtually the only diagnostic characters are the leafshapes: oblanceolate in E. esula, lanceolate in E. waldsteinii and linear in E. cyparissias. All are found natd in hedgerows and grassy and waste places; probably all but E. cyparissias and E. x pseudovirgata are under-recorded. Over 60 spp. have been recognised in the agg., and some others than the 3 treated here might occur in BI. E. boissieriana (Woronow) Prokh. and its hybrid with E. esula have been recorded but are not known natd at present. They differ from E. waldsteinii and its hybrid with E. esula ± only in their wider and less acute leaves; many plants named E. x pseudovirgata, however, have obtuse leaves more than 5mm wide, and their identity needs checking. 15. E. waldsteinii (Soják) Czerep. (E. virgata Waldst. & Kit. non Desf.) - Waldstein's Spurge. Stems to 1m, relatively robust; leaves linear- to oblong-lanceolate, widest below middle, mostly c.4-5mm wide, rounded to broadly cuneate-rounded at base, usually cuspidate to acuminate at apex. Intrd-natd; in scattered places in En and N to Lanarks; C & SE Europe to SW Asia. This sp. should possibly be amalgamated with E. esula. 16.

Flowers with 1-2 nectaries; cup-like perianth 0; bracts entire; winter buds with 1 outer scale 2. SALIX Flowers with cup-like perianth; nectaries 0; bracts toothed; winter buds with several outer scales 1. POPULUS

1. POPULUS L. - Poplars Trees; winter buds with several outer scales; flowers appearing before leaves, with toothed or deeply divided bracts, with cup-like perianth; nectaries 0; stamens 5c.60. The most important characters are the general habit of the tree and the shape of leaves on the dwarf lateral shoots (short-shoots) or extension shoots (long-shoots); leaves on suckers or epicormic shoots are often very different. The sex of the tree can be important in identification. Apart from the need for mature leaves, most characters are best observed in late spring, when shoot hairiness and colour, sex and tree-shape are all obvious. 1 1

P. balsamifera

Other spp. - Several other spp. are grown in parks and some are now being used in groups or rows. Most common are 2 balsam-poplars: P. laurifolia Ledeb. (Laurelleaved Poplar), from C Asia, differing from the others in its spreading habit, narrowly ovate leaves with rounded bases and acuminate apices, and very angled branchlets; and P. maximowiczii A. Henry (Japanese Balsam-poplar), from E Asia, with large ovate-elliptic leaves with very narrow cordate bases and apiculate twisted apices, and rounded branchlets. Cultivars of P. maximowiczii x P. trichocarpa (especially cv. 'Androscoggin') have been grown for timber. P. deltoides Marshall, from N America and much used in hybridisations, is rarely planted in BI. 1. P. alba L. - White Poplar. Tree to 24m with broad spreading crown, many suckers and smooth grey bark; leaves palmately lobed, densely white-tomentose on lowerside; males very rare; (2n=38, 57). Intrd-natd; much planted and often well natd from dense sucker growth, especially on coastal dunes; scattered in BI, especially in C & S Br and CI, rare in NW Sc; Europe. 2. P. x canescens (Aiton) Sm. (P. x hybrida M. Bieb.; P. alba x P. tremula) - Grey Poplar. Tree to 46m, similar to P. alba but more vigorous; leaves coarsely and bluntly sinuate-dentate, densely tomentose on lowerside at first, often much less so or subglabrous later; female rather rare; partially fertile; (2n=38, 57). Intrd-natd; much planted but rarely natd from suckers, probably never arising anew in BI but often alone or in groups among native taxa, especially in damp woods and by streams;

scattered throughout BI but absent from much of Sc; Europe. 3. P. tremula L. - Aspen. Tree to 24m, rather similar in habit to P. alba; leaves suborbicular, coarsely and bluntly sinuate-dentate, glabrous or rarely sparsely hairy at maturity; sucker leaves ovate-cordate, hairy; 2n=38. Native; woods and hedgerows on all sorts of soils, often forming suckering thickets; throughout BI. 4. P. nigra L. - Black-poplar. Trees of various habit, not suckering; leaves rhombicovate to trullate, broadly cuneate (to truncate) at base, without glands, serrate with many small teeth. 1 Tree with spreading crown; trunk with large burrs a. ssp. betulifolia 1 Tree fastigiate, with ± erect branches; trunk without burrs 2 2 Young leaves and stems sparsely hairy; male d. 'Plantierensis' 2 Young leaves and stems glabrous 3 3 Tree very narrowly fastigiate; male b. 'Italica' 3 Tree often more widely fastigiate; female c. 'Gigantea' a. Ssp. betulifolia (Pursh) Dippel. Spreading tree to 33m with burred trunk; young leaves and stems sparsely hairy; 2n=38. Native; in fields by streams and ponds, typically in river flood-plains; scattered through BI N to Cumberland and S Northumb, frequent in E Wa, C En and E Anglia, planted elsewhere, mostly male. b. 'Italica' (P. nigra var. italica Münchh.) - Lombardy-poplar. Narrowly fastigiate tree to 36m; trunk not burred; shoots glabrous; male only. Intrd-surv; much planted in parks and as screening or windbreaks; throughout much of BI; garden origin. c. 'Gigantea' - Giant Lombardy-poplar. Like 'Italica' but female and usually broader as in 'Plantierensis'. Intrd-surv; grown in same way as 'Italica' but less common. d. 'Plantierensis' (P. nigra ssp. betulifolia x P. 'Italica'). Similar to 'Italica' but often less narrowly fastigiate; young shoots hairy; male only. Intrd-surv; used similarly to 'Italica' and now as common; garden origin. 4 x 7. P. nigra x P. x jackii. In Leeds (MW Yorks), P. x jackii has been pollinated by P. nigra to give strongly regenerating hybrids on waste ground, first found 1983. The hybrids show variable characters of the parents on 1 plant: c.1/2 of the petioles are glabrous, 1/2 hairy; c.1/2 the leaf-margins are serrate, 1/2 crenate; leaf-base is cuneate (as in P. nigra) in most cases but c.20% are rounded (shape not in either parent); leaf lowerside colour varies between those of the parents. This is effectively P. balsamifera x P. deltoides x P. nigra. 5. P. x canadensis Moench (P. x euramericana (Dode) Guinier; P. nigra x P. deltoides) - Hybrid Black-poplar. Trees of various habit, to >40m, those with spreading crowns differing from P. nigra in absence of burrs on trunks; usually largely up-swept, not down-curved, lower branches (not twigs); and leaves usually with sessile glands near junction with petiole; (2n=38). Intrd-natd; throughout BI; many cultivars are grown for ornament, screening and forestry, only the more frequent are treated here; garden origin.

Similar to 'Serotina' but bark persistently whitish-grey until becoming fissured; grown mostly for timber in small plantations; arose Holland late 1800s. c. 'Casale 78' ('I78'). Similar to 'Gelrica' and 'Serotina' but female and earlier in leaf, now much more grown than either for timber, but only in S Br; spontaneous in Italy in 1920s. d. 'Regenerata' (P. 'Marilandica' x P. 'Serotina') - Railway Poplar. Crown with characteristically asymmetrically ascending branches and without obvious main axis; grown for ornament and screening, especially by railways in SE En; arose France 1814. e. 'Robusta' (P. deltoides 'Cordata' x P. nigra 'Plantierensis'). Grown as timber in small plantations and as screening by roads, factories and canals; much of Br, especially S; arose France 1895. f. 'Heidemij'. Apparently told from 'Robusta' only by the glabrous young shoots, and similarly grown; arose Netherlands 1891. Although both are 'early leafers', 'Heidemij' is slightly earlier than 'Robusta'. g. 'Eugenei' (P. 'Regenerata' x P. nigra 'Italica') - Carolina Poplar. Grown in same situations as 'Robusta'; similar distribution but less common; arose France 1832. h. 'Marilandica' (P. nigra ssp. nigra x P. 'Serotina'). Crown narrower and more symmetrical than in 'Regenerata' and with obvious main axis; planted as ornamental and for screening over much of Br, especially S; arose Europe c.1800. Apparently planted male and female trees of backcrosses to native P. nigra occur in Cheshire. Hybrid Black Poplars also form an extensive young natural population on damp rough ground at Hackney, Middlesex; the parentage is probably P. x canadensis 'Marilandica' x P. x canadensis 'Serotina'. Seedlings occur sporadically elsewhere; all are inter-cultivar crosses. 5 x 7. P. x canadensis 'Serotina' x P. x jackii occurs in the Hackney hybrid population and also nearby in S Essex; the plants are obviously Black-Balsam poplar hybrids and the suggested parentage is the only likely one in the area. This has the same basic parentage as P. nigra x P. x jackii, but in different proportions and from different genotypes. 6. P. x berolinensis (K. Koch) Dippel (P. nigra 'Italica' x P. laurifolia) - Berlin Poplar. Narrow, subfastigiate tree to 33m; leaves ovate-elliptic to -rhombic, rounded to cuneate at base, acuminate at apex; petioles sparsely hairy; male and female; (2n=38). Intrd-natd; formerly much planted for amenity and still found surviving, rarely suckering; En; arose in Berlin in 1860s. 7. P. x generosa A. Henry (P. deltoides x P. trichocarpa) - Generous Poplar.

Fruiting catkins (c.10-FP  DUH •[ DV long as those of other balsam-poplars except P. maximowiczii. 9. P. trichocarpa Torr. & A. Gray ex Hook. - Western Balsam-poplar. Tree to 35m with narrow outline but spreading lower branches, with few or no suckers; leaves ovate to narrowly so, mostly truncate to subcordate at base, acuminate at apex; petioles inconspicuously and very shortly (but often densely) hairy; mostly male; (2n=38). Intrd-natd; frequently planted for ornament and for timber in small plots; scattered in Br, N Ir, Man, natd by suckers in Lanarks; W N America. Several new cultivars are now being grown, e.g. 'Trichobel', with very fast growth-rates. 10. P. 'Balsam Spire' ('Tacatricho 32'; P. trichocarpa x P. balsamifera) - Hybrid Balsampoplar. Tree to >30m with very narrow outline, without suckers; leaves similar to those of P. balsamifera; female only. Intrd-surv; used for screening, as windbreak and in plantations for timber, now 1 of the most planted poplars in Br and N Ir; arose N America 1930s. 11. P. balsamifera L. (P. tacamahacca Mill., P. candicans Aiton) - Eastern Balsampoplar. Tree to 25m with narrow outline, often with many suckers; leaves ovate to broadly so, mostly rounded at base, abruptly acuminate at apex; petioles as in P. trichocarpa; male and female; (2n=38, 76). Intrd-surv; planted as for P. trichocarpa but less common; scattered in Br and Man; E N America. 2. SALIX L. - Willows Trees or dwarf to tall shrubs; winter buds with 1 outer scale; flowers appearing before, with or after leaves, with entire bracts, with 1-2 nectaries; cup-like perianth 0; stamens 1-5(12). Identification is often made difficult by the extensive degree of hybridisation (68 combinations at present known in BI, of which 20 are hybrids between 3 spp.). Only those hybrids considered certainly or very probably correctly identified are listed here; a number of others, some mentioned in earlier editions of this Flora, are omitted. The parentage of some well-known hybrids remains uncertain, e.g. S. x boydii E.F. Linton, formerly suggested as S. lapponum x S. reticulata, but now thought to be a cross between S. lapponum and one or two other unknown species (and long extinct in the wild). The 14 hybrids treated fully here are not necessarily the most common, but those likely to be found without parents nearby. Most of these are crosses between the taller lowland species that have been planted for ornament and basket-work. In many cases catkins and both young and mature leaves are desirable for identification; keys based on catkins alone are not satisfactory. Mature leaves should be collected in Jul-Sep, before senescence; abnormally vigorous shoots (e.g. suckers) should be avoided. In this account the so-called catkin-scales (scales associated with each flower) are termed bracts, which they truly are. 'Twigs' refer to those that have completed 1-2 years' growth, not current growth. Except locally, where plants have been clonally propagated, the spp. are generally represented by both sexes roughly equally, but many of the hybrids are much more commonly, or only, female. Bisexual catkins are not rare, especially in hybrids, incl. some of those noted as 'female only'.

The garden Polyanthus is probably of this origin, and occasionally this escapes from cultivation or persists where planted; such plants may vary considerably in flower colour, from white to orange, purple or mauve. This hybrid, P. elatior, and plants of P. vulgaris with a scape are often confused; careful attention to leaves, flowers and hairiness is needed to avoid this. 2. P. elatior (L.) Hill - Oxlip.

Other spp. - A sterile plant found among S. orientale in Cambs in 2001 has the habit of S. orientale, off-white flowers with corolla-tips pale pink turning to pale violet, a deeply divided calyx, and 2n=26. It is clearly a hybrid between S. orientale and a sp. with a coloured corolla and more deeply divided calyx, and presumably with 2n=20; it has been named S. x perringianum P.H. Oswald & P.D. Sell. It no longer occurs in the wild but is in cultivation.

Ssp. officinale. Stems often >1m; corolla >16mm, cream, purplish or sometimes striped dark and light purple, rarely white; 2n=44 (rare), 48. By streams and rivers, in fens and marshy places, also roadsides and rough ground; locally frequent in BI, but less common than and over-recorded for S. x uplandicum. The flowers that are not purplish are often wrongly described as white; except for very rare albinos they are cream. b.

Native; fens, wet fields, by lakes and rivers; common over most of En and Wa, much more scattered in CI, Ir and Sc. 24. MENTHA L. - Mints Herbaceous rhizomatous and/or stoloniferous perennials with characteristic scents when fresh; leaves entire to serrate; calyx with 5 equal to rather unequal teeth; corolla pinkish to bluish-mauve or white, nearly actinomorphic, with 4 subequal lobes, the uppermost usually wider and shallowly bifid; stamens 4, longer than corolla in bisexual flowers of most fertile taxa; whorls all distant in leaf-axils, or the upper congested in axils of reduced leaves. Taxonomically difficult due to well marked plasticity, widespread hybridisation, and the clonal propagation of mutants and nothomorphs by the strongly developed rhizomes. The stamens are typically exserted, but are included in M. requienii, some plants of M. pulegium, female flowers of all other spp., and most (but not all) hybrids. With practice the scent of fresh plants is very helpful, but difficult to describe. Taxa 7-11 (M. spicata group), involving M. spicata (tetraploid), M. suaveolens (diploid) and their hybrids with each other and with the non-British M. longifolia (diploid), are particularly difficult, especially owing to the great variation of M. spicata, which is itself derived from M. longifolia x M. suaveolens. The 2 triploid hybrids are sterile, but the diploid hybrid and the species are fertile in bisexual plants or in female plants open to a pollen source. Hairy plants that are not M. suaveolens are often impossible to name for certain. Characters of M. suaveolens often seen in its hybrids are the broad, obtuse, very rugose leaves with teeth partly folded under the margin and with patchy or clumped indumentum on lowerside; of M. longifolia are the lanceolate-oblong, acute, flat leaves with sharp patent teeth and with felted grey indumentum; and of M. spicata are the lanceolate to ovate, acute, not to slightly rugose leaves with usually forward-directed teeth and relatively coarse hairs. M. spicata is the most variable; very broad-leaved plants, and strongly rugose-leaved plants occur, but this is the only sp. of the 3 that can be glabrous to sparsely hairy and the only sp. that can smell of spearmint. Hybrids (especially M. x villosa) can be very variable, showing many combinations of characters not always connected by intermediates, but they do not exactly duplicate the combinations

119. PHRYMACEAE ² Monkeyflower family Herbaceous perennials with leafy stolons; stems ± round in section; leaves opposite, simple, dentate, without stipules, sessile to petiolate. Flowers in terminal racemes, zygomorphic, bisexual, hypogynous; calyx with 5 lobes fused for most of length, not well differentiated into upper and lower lips; corolla with 5 strong flat lobes, with 2 lobes in upper and 3 lobes in lower lip, yellow to red or copper-coloured; stamens 4, borne on corolla-tube; ovary 2-celled, each cell with numerous ovules on axile placentas; style 1, terminal; stigma 2-lobed; fruit a 2-celled capsule. Easily recognised as water or waterside plants with large yellow to red Scrophulariaceous flowers and leafy stolons. 1. MIMULUS L. - Monkeyflowers M. guttatus and M. luteus agg. (incl. M. variegatus, M. nummularius and M. cupreus) form a difficult, interfertile group; hybrids are frequent and at least 3 can occur in the absence of either parent. Hybrids between M. guttatus and M. luteus agg. are sterile (pollen 50% full; seeds many per capsule). In this account M. cupreus is considered distinct from M. luteus, but M. variegatus and M. nummularius (M. luteus var. rivularis) are included in the latter.

Other spp. - M. cupreus Dombrain has been recorded from several places, but in error for M. x burnetii; it is a small slender fertile plant lacking simple white hairs and with usually uniformly coppery-coloured corollas. All the spp. are natd in damp or wet places by streams and ponds, on river shingle, in flushes, ditches and damp patches in fields or open woods. 1. M. moschatus Douglas ex Lindl. - Musk. Whole plant glandular-hairy; stems decumbent to ascending, to 40cm; corolla 1-2.5cm, pale yellow; 2n=32. Intrd-natd; scattered over most of BI but rare in Ir; W N America. 2. M. guttatus DC. - Monkeyflower. Plant glabrous below, with many simple and glandular hairs above; stems erect to ascending, to 80cm; corolla 2.5-5cm, bright yellow, often with red spots on throat but not on lobes, its throat ± closed by 2 bosses on lower lip; fertile; 2n=28. Intrd-natd; scattered and locally common over most of BI, the commonest lowland taxon; W N America. 2 x 6. M. guttatus x (M. luteus x M. cupreus) (M. x polymaculus Silverside nom. nud.) occurs as a garden escape or sometimes spontaneously with its 2 parents in Sc, W En and Man; it differs from M. x burnetii in its corolla-lobes having dark blotches, and from M. x maculosus in being hairy above and sterile; 2n=45. 3. M. x robertsii Silverside (M. luteus auct. non L.; M. guttatus x M. luteus) - Hybrid Monkeyflower. Plant glabrous below, variably hairy above; stems erect to ascending, to 60cm; corolla 2.5-4.5cm, bright yellow with orange to red or purplish-brown spots and blotches variably developed on throat and lobes, its throat ± open; usually sterile; 2n=44, 45, 46, 54.

M. luteus). The hybrid with M. x smithii (M. x caledonicus Silverside nom. nud.) resembles the latter very closely but is sterile; it occurs in N En and Sc and might have originated there in the wild. 4. M. x burnetii S. Arn. (M. cupreus auct. non Dombrain; M. guttatus x M. cupreus) - Coppery Monkeyflower. Differs from M. guttatus x M. luteus in corolla coppercoloured with lighter throat marked with red spots but no dark blotches on corollalobes; sterile; 2n=45. Intrd-natd; W & N Br N from S Somerset, Man; garden origin. 5. M. luteus L. (M. variegatus J. St. Hil., M. nummularius (Clos) Stace) - Blood-dropemlets.

Intrd-natd; rather uncommon in Br, mainly N, rare in Ir, much over-recorded for M. x robertsii; Chile. Our plant is var. rivularis Lindl.; var. luteus (with no corolla blotches) does not occur here. M. variegatus, differing in having the corolla purple except towards its base, is sometimes segregated. It does not occur here but its hybrid with var. rivularis (M. x smithii Paxton) is natd in N Br; it differs from var. rivularis in being more robust and having larger more purplish corolla-blotches and leaves with obtuser teeth. 6. M. x maculosus W. Bull ex T. Moore (M. luteus x M. cupreus) - Scottish Monkeyflower. Differs from M. luteus as in key (couplet 5); corolla variable, its lobes usually cream or yellow with coppery-orange spots or blotches but sometimes more coppery, very rarely unblotched as in M. luteus var. luteus; fertile. Intrd-natd; Br N from Lake District, S Somerset; garden origin. Hybrids between M. cupreus and M x smithii (see under M. luteus), much grown as bedding plants with many corolla colours, are known as M. x hybridus Siebert & Voss.

120. PAULOWNIACEAE ² Foxglove-tree family Deciduous tree with spreading crown; leaves opposite, simple, entire or sometimes shallowly 3-lobed, without stipules, petiolate. Flowers in large panicles, zygomorphic, bisexual, hypogynous; calyx with 5-lobes fused proximally; corolla purplish-blue to violet, trumpet-shaped, strongly 5-lobed, the lobes nearly equal and scarcely organised into 2 lips, with tube much longer than lobes; stamens 4, included, borne on corolla-tube; ovary 2-celled, each cell with numerous ovules on axile placentas; style 1, terminal; stigma 1, minute; fruit a 2-celled capsule. Our only tall tree with large blue flowers. 1. PAULOWNIA Siebold & Zucc. - Foxglove-tree 1. P. tomentosa (Thunb.) Steud. - Foxglove-tree. Tree to 26m; leaves broadly ovate, 12-25(50)cm, cordate at base, often shallowly 3-5-lobed, entire; flowers in large terminal erect panicles, 3.5-6cm, with patent lobes; (2n=40). Intrd-natd; ornamental planted in parks and by roads, self-sown in rough ground in Middlesex since at least 1990, few other sites in S En; China.

The long-expressed opinion that the semi-parasitic Scrophulariaceae (tribe Pedicularieae (Rhinantheae)) should be placed with the totally parasitic Orobanchaceae has been confirmed by molecular studies. The total parasites are distinguished from the former Scrophulariaceae by their chlorophyll-less aerial parts and 1-celled ovary. The partial parasites can be recognised by the combination of 4-lobed (not 5-lobed) calyx (irregularly 2-5-lobed with toothed lobes in Pedicularis), 4 stamens and opposite leaves (alternate in Pedicularis). 1 1

EUPHRASIA L. - Eyebrights Annuals; leaves mostly opposite, conspicuously toothed; calyx not inflated, with 4 entire lobes; corolla white to purple, usually with darker veins and yellow blotch on lower lip, rarely yellow all over, with open mouth, with lower lip with 3 emarginate lobes; capsules with many seeds; seeds furrowed longitudinally, without oil-body. A highly critical genus with 71 wild hybrids, for which the key does not allow. For a good chance of correct determination at least 5 or 6 well-grown (not stunted or spindly) and undamaged plants bearing some fruits as well as open flowers should be examined from a population. Ranges, rather than means, from these should be used. Single plants, or plants not agreeing with the above stipulation, are not allowed for in the key. The following key and accounts are based upon the views of P.F. Yeo as modified by A.J. Silverside; other specialists hold different views with a broader sp. limit that might eventually prove more durable, but a wider concept of only E. officinalis has been adopted here. The name E. officinalis is often applied in an aggregate sense to the whole genus or to all spp. except E. salisburgensis, but

Many segregates have been described at sp. and ssp. level, e.g. from serpentine in Cornwall and coastal limestone in the W, but there has been no systematic survey of our wild populations so it is premature to present a workable scheme. Moreover there has been much planting from unknown sources on roadsides etc. 2. L. x superbum (Bergmans ex J.W. Ingram) D.H.

157. LILIACEAE - Lily family Usually erect, mostly glabrous, herbaceous perennials with a bulb; leaves few on stem, alternate or occasionally whorled, simple, entire, sessile or petiolate, without stipules. Flowers solitary or in racemes or few in umbel-like clusters, bisexual, usually conspicuous, hypogynous, actinomorphic; perianth of 6 free tepals, often brightly coloured, the 3 outer not obviously different from the 3 inner; stamens 6; ovary 3-celled with numerous (or fewer, down to 2) ovules on axile placentas; style 1 or 0, with 3 minute to capitate or linear stigmas; fruit a capsule. The much restricted Liliaceae are herbaceous plants with a bulb, 1-few leaves on stem, few basal leaves, 1 to usually few showy hypogynous flowers per inflorescence, 6 similar tepals, 3-celled ovary and fruit a capsule. There are only 3 native spp. in our flora, all now in Gagea. It has long been known that Cronquist's very broad Liliaceae should be subdivided, some of the segregate families belonging to different orders. This has now been confirmed by molecular data; the taxa in our flora should be divided into at least the 9 families recognised here. 1 1 3 3

Native; Fagus woods on chalk or limestone, rarely with other vegetation; very rare in N Hants, Bucks and E Gloucs, formerly elsewhere in S En. 3. EPIPACTIS Zinn - Helleborines Rhizomatous, mostly shortly so; leaves several, all on stem; flowers distinctly pedicellate, borne spirally or ± on 1 side of stem, various dull colours; labellum usually differentiated c.1/2 way into proximal and distal parts, neither markedly lobed, the proximal part ± cup-shaped and not wrapped round column; rostellum obvious and secreting a white sticky cap (viscidium), or minute and with 0 or vestigial viscidium; pollinia without stalks. Spp. 5-8 form a problematical complex of self-pollinated plants in which sp. limits are uncertain and disputed. They can be distinguished from the other spp. by having a rostellum which secretes little or no viscidium that usually withers soon after the flower opens. In the other (cross-pollinated) spp. the rostellum is obvious

862

158. ORCHIDACEAE

and the viscidium remains in the open flower until removed along with the pollinia by visiting insects. This can be effected with a match-stick or similar object; when the viscidium is touched and the object pulled away the pollinia are drawn out with it. In the self-pollinated spp. the pollinia crumble apart and cannot easily be pulled out whole. 1 1

An extremely popular garden genus with numerous interspecific hybrids and thousands of cultivars, many with uncertain parentage. Sp. limits are much disputed. For convenience the classification advocated by the Royal Horticultural Society is adopted here, but for botanical accuracy N. radiiflorus would probably be better as a ssp. of N. poeticus, and spp. 18-22 better as sspp. of N. pseudonarcissus, as indicated by the fact that hybrids between the spp. in these 2 groups are not recognised yet intermediates between them are very common. Many occur natd in fields, waysides, woods, rough ground, banks, etc., and are very difficult to classify. The descriptions mainly apply to the commonest wild variants of each taxon, but others (especially colour variants) occur and are then best assigned to the recognised Divisions of The International Daffodil Register (Kington 2008). This particularly applies to some of the hybrids, the extreme forms of which might key out with one of their parents and whose measurements might extend beyond those given in the descriptions.

F. rubra = X F. fredericii Cugnac & A. Camus has been found in Sweden but the record from Br was an error. 20. FESTUCA L. - Fescues Perennials with or without rhizomes, without stolons; sheaths not fused or fused; leaves without auricles, or with short rounded auricles not clasping stem; inflorescence a panicle; spikelets with (2)3-many florets all (except the most apical) bisexual, sometimes proliferating; glumes not markedly unequal; lemmas rounded on back, 3-5-veined, acuminate to subacute at apex, awned or not; stamens 3. The F. rubra (spp. 3-5) and F. ovina (spp. 6-13) aggs are extremely critical, and accurate identification requires considerable experience and often the aid of leafsections, leaf epidermis characters and chromosome numbers. Shaded, droughted, crowded-out or otherwise starved plants should be avoided. The classifications of these aggs adopted here follow the results of intensive studies by A.-K.K.A. AlBermani and M.J. Wilkinson respectively. Leaf, sheath and ligule characters refer to leaves on tillers unless otherwise stated. Spikelet lengths are not total spikelet lengths, but the length from the base of the lower glume to the apex (excl. awn) of the fourth lemma; lengths of spikelets with only 3 florets are obtained by addition to the total length of an increment equal to the distance between the tips of the second and third lemmas. Lemma lengths exclude awns, and refer to only the lowest 2 per spikelet. Awn lengths are calculated by averaging the lengths of all the awns of one spikelet, and then finding the mean of this value for 5-10 spikelets. All measurements given are a range of means of 5-10 measurements per plant (not a range of extremes). The distinction between extravaginal and intravaginal tillers is fundamental. The latter arise parallel to the parent shoot and remain enclosed within the parental sheath for some distance. The former arise ± at right angles to the parent shoot and break through the parental sheath at its base. Rhizomes always start off extravaginally; hence the presence of rhizomes indicates the existence of extravaginal shoots, but the absence of rhizomes does not necessarily mean that all tillers are intravaginal. Sheath fusion should be observed on the next to most apical sheath of a tiller by stripping off all the more mature sheaths below it. 1 1
