{Genista pilosa, SJ80W, Pendeford, 1817 is very unlikely.
Hymenophyllum wilsonii, SJ96X, Gradbach c.1840 is not supported by subsequent sightings or a herbarium specimen.
The identification and status of two specimens in City Museum, Hanley, have not been checked. They purport to be from
“Wootton, 1907” (SK14C) and “near Flash” (SK06D) c. 1840”}
