Image:Sibthorpia europaea herbarium specimen from Holford Combe, VC5 South Somerset in 1888 by Mr Harold Stuart Thompson.
fruits/flowers:mature flowers
notes:H S Thompson remarks on the sheet that (Sibthorpia europaea is) 'Still at Holford, 1933, by the roadside, extending its range towards the main road. I can't remember, but probably the 1888 gathering was from the roadside streambed and not in the actual Combe. In 1933 i saw none in the Combe, nor any Hymenophyllum, but could not get very far along the Combe.'
