*1: Trefusis, 1840, EAW
(TRU) (Paton 1969a: 735); (vc1 placed in
brackets because no recent record: Paton 1969a: 735, Crundwell
1970: 204).
+1: On rather bare,
sandy ground in semi-fixed dunes, Reen Sands, SW75, 1995, DTH
conf. EVW (BBSUK, DTH) (Rothero 2000: 55).
Only records supported by specimens were accepted
by Paton (1969a: 735). In addition to those, other records by
T. Laflin (SW53A, SW54W, SW97C, SX27Q) are probably correct as
his Cornish specimen (SS21W: in CGE) is
correctly determined.
Habitat notes for recent records in C&S are as
follows. Reen Sands: in sparsely vegetated area on slope in
dunes, near old mine-shaft. St Martin's: on hard, sandy soil
of slope just above beach; unshaded.
Only recorded c.fr. [only identified with mature
capsules]: capsules dehiscing 6.
