*1: Helston [=SW62], before 1880, JEB (BM) (Paton 1969a: 709, Crundwell
1970: 196, Murray 1988: 72, Blockeel 1989: 24).
[Vc2
records (Rough Tor, in Tellam 1888; Gam Bridge, 1871, RVT (B); Gunwen Moor, RVT
(CMM); Luxulyan,
1906, RWS (TRU))
are based on misidentified A. rothii: Paton 1969a:
709].
Known in Cornwall only by specimen in BM from 'Helston'
noted above. Although the record was accepted as correct by
Paton (1969a: 709) and Murray (1988: 71-72), there must be
a lingering
suspicion that the locality may have been erroneously recorded
(or that Helstone in vc2, or Helton near Penrith was
involved), especially since the close vicinity of Helston has
hardly any suitable rock exposures.
