Flora of Ashdown Forest - Botanical Society of the British Isles

SPECIES ACCOUNTS27Lat'1n names follow Stace (1991) unless otherwise stated so authorities have not been given. The first English name givenfollows Stace (1991), followed by Sussex names from Arnold (1907), Grigson (1955) or local sources.Species in [square brackets] are currently thought to be errors, are not properly naturalized, or are probably fromoutside the Flora area. An asterisk *" in front of the name indicates that the species is not native or probably not native inthe Flora area.Historical records for the Forest are given in approximate date order, quoting the original source wherever possible(records repeated in later publications are not duplicated). The herbaria are cited using their standard abbreviations (Kent &Alien 1984). Literature sources are listed in the bibliography with the exception of those in Ashdown Forest News (AFN)which are cited in brief. Tetrad nomenclature follows the standard BSBI DINTY system (Ellis 1986) (see Figure 14); notethat this is NOT the system used by Hall (1980) and Briggs (1990) whose tetrads have here been reallocated to thisstandard system.Figure 14. The DINTY tetrad system within a 1 O-km square (so-called after the second line).E J P U ZD I N T YC H M S XB G L R WA F K Q VDetails of the current distribution and ecology are given usually with 6-figure or 4-figure grid references for manyuncommon species, but not for the most sensitive rare plants. As all the records are from the lOO-km square TO(51) thisis not given.Details of the British and world distributions are taken mainly from Clapham, Tutin & Moore (1987) to help put thelocal distributions into a wider context.The initials of the botanists are as follows:AB Alec BullAH Arthur HoareAK Alan KnappAN Alan NewtonCM Chris MarrableDB David BevanDE Dave EarlDK Dave KingDS David StreeterEL Eimear Nic LughadhaER Elizabeth RichFR Francis RoseHP Helen ProctorJK Jan KirschnerMM Malcolm McFarlaneMR Madeline ReaderOther abbreviations are as follows:SEX Bexhill MuseumBM Natural History Museum, LondonBTN Booth Museum, BrightonCGE Cambridge University herbariumNMW National Museum of WalesOXF Oxford University herbariumLlV Liverpool MuseumL TR Leicester UniversityTLS Tunbridge Wells MuseumNMNNPAPCPDPHPRPSPWRCRNRRRWSRTRAFNAFRRBRCBSBISBRSagg.det.et al.s.1.S.s.*+Nicky MuggeridgeNigel NicholsonPenny AngoldPatrick CoulcherPat DonovanPaul HarmesPete ReaderPeter SollarsPhyllis WhiteRob CookRachel NicholsonRob RandallRaymond WhiteSarah RichardsonTim RichAshdown Forest NewsAshdown Forest Rangers' records (various sources)Biological Records Centre dataBotanical Society of the British IslesSussex Botanical Recording Societyaggregate (closely related plants)determined bywith various otherssensu lato, in a broad sensesensu stricto, in a strict sensenot native in Flora areaonwards, Of with various others
