Plant records 2018

Explanatory notes

The following list contains all species that are newly recorded for a 10km grid square within Wiltshire. In this list ‘new’ refers to records gathered since the early 1980’s and the publication of the 1993 Wiltshire Flora. In addition, the word ‘recent’ refers to this period also.

The information contains both scientific and common names based on the New Flora of the British Isles 3rd edition. (Stace); together with site, brief information where supplied and the initials of the recorder. First County or Vice-county records appear in bold italics. For interest some species may have the IUCN threat criteria attached as documented in A Vascular Plant Red List for England (BSBI:2014).
