36 FUMARIACEAE 



C. digitata, Pers. Syn. ii. 269 (1807), NeckeHa solida. N. bulbosa, 

 N. E. Br. 



Comp. Cyb. Br. 479. Curtis, Bot. Mag. t. 231. Syme, E. B. i. loi, t. 6y. 

 Nyman, 26. Fl. Oxf. 20. 



Alien. A garden escape. P. April-May. 



2. Ock. In a hedge at Bayworth, but not very near a garden. 



In this species the bracts are digitately cut. 



Neither of the foregoing species of Capnoides are native to the British 

 Flora. Until recently the genus appeared in our British Floras under the 

 name of Corydalis. In the E. B. Suppl. ed. 3, 1. c, Mr. N. E. Brown adopted 

 for this genus Scopoli's name of Neckeria, which is certainly older. In the 

 present work Adanson's name of Capnoides, which he took from Tournefort, 

 is adopted, as it undoubtedly has priority over the names already mentioned. 

 Unfortunately it is faulty in construction, and to amend it Kuntze, in the 

 Revisio Generum Plantaruvi, altered it to Capnodes, but I do not think he is 

 justified in this. I should rather claim for it the privilege which we accord 

 to the gentis Gloriosa of Linnaeus and 3Iniodes of Asa Gray, which are adopted 

 in Bentham and Hooker's Genera Plantarum. Moreover. Adanson's name 

 for the genus has been accepted in several continental floras. 



C. claviculata, mihi. Climbing Fumitory. 



Fumaria claviculata, Linn. Sp. PI. 701. Corydalis claviculata, DC, Fl. 

 Fr. iv. 638. Neckeria claviculata, N. E. Brown in E. B. Suppl. 1. c. 



Top. Bot. 24. Syme, E. B. i. 103, t. 70. Nyman, 26. Fl. Oxf. 20. 

 Native. Sylvestral, septal. Coppices, hedges, very local and rare. 



A. June -August. 

 First record. Corydalis claviculata, Mr. M. H. Wilkin in Phyt. n. s. (1857- 

 8), 172. 

 5. Loddon. By rail-side near Sunningdale Station, Wilkin. Farmer 

 Bishop's Wood, Ambarrow ; also near a brook between the rail- 

 way and Sandhurst Road, Penny, in Britt. Contr. Near the Black- 

 watei', below Wokingham, Salmon. In a hedge near the Saw 

 Mills at Finchampstead, Tufnail. 

 This species, which appears to be restricted to the extreme south of 

 the county, is also very rare in Oxfordshire, where I have only seen 

 it in two localities, viz. HaiJey Wood and Bruern Wood. In Bucking- 

 hamshire it occurs near Stoke Poges and in Briekhill Woods. It does 

 not appear to have been found in Wiltshire or E. Gloucestershire, but 

 is recorded for the other borderinsj counties.
