 Mr. English recorded this species as in fruit in Epping 

 Forest, but the fruit on all his specimens belongs to 

 Webeva nutans which was mixed with the Leucobvyum. 

 In Essex Naturalist, VI. (1881), Mr. Waller, of 

 Tottenham, records the fruiting of this species in the 

 forest. I have seen no fruiting specimen from the 

 county.
