THE DISTRIBUTION OF PADINA PAVONICA 



35 



Lestiboudois (1781), whose '. . . Provinces septentrionales de la France' must be taken to 

 cover the whole of Belgian and French Flanders, has the earliest traced record. Later (1827), he 

 localised his Padina record precisely to Dunkerque (Nord); this French area may therefore have 

 been the real source, at least in part, of the earlier general record. Roucel's (1803) record, despite 

 absence of acknowledgement, is certain to be repeated from Lestiboudois (1781) and is therefore 

 cited for Belgian Flanders.
