Filed in taxon folder:Tiliaceae: Tilia cordata Mill. ("Small-leaved Lime")

Image:Tilia cordata herbarium specimen from Craig y Cilau, VC42 Breconshire by Rev. Augustin Ley.
fruits/flowers:mature flowers
notes:note by H A Hyde: I suggest that this specimen is mis-labelled [Salop etc...2/9/09]. The flowering date of 2 Sept is improbably late. The particulars entered in ink are not in Ley's handwriting but I think in that of the writer of the (green) labels relating to R C R Jordan's specimens from Lympstone (1846). The two words in pencil and in Ley's writing: they should read [Tilia] cordata [Craig] Cille [Breconshire]. T cordata is known to occur in this locality & no other specimens collected there by Ley appears in his herbarium although he visited the place.

Inferred details are marked.
