This specimen is variously labelled as P rupicola var, S aria var incisa, and S anglica (W&W 1935).

[David Price]

Not an ideal specimen, but it looks like S. anglica. Evidently Wilmott and Warburg (W&W) thought so.

Thanks for clearing up the W & W.
Interestingly, Tim Rich &/or Sell have detted all the S anglica on our database but not yet this one, nor any S aria I have looked at.
