Very local throughout Wilts. This species bears much resemblance 

 to some of the more hairy forms of A. Cotula, which in pubescence 

 and breadth of the segments of its leaves approaches the former 

 very closely. A. arvensis, may always be distinguished from it, by 

 its lax procumbent habit, generally larger and fewer flowers, that 

 are on very long hairy peduncles, a little enlarged upwards, and 

 not disposed in the same panicled or corymbose manner as in that 

 species.
