Image:Thalictrum minus herbarium specimen from Fearnan, VC88 Mid Perthshire in 1923 by Mr George Claridge Druce.
notes:"Fearnan is the Gaelic word for Alder. This is the T. kochii of the local botanists. Moss in Camb. Fl. gives as habitats 'calcareous grassland and sand dunes.' Has any botanist found restricted minus in the latter habitat? Rock ledges on hills, a not unusual habitat, is not given. As will be seen in these specimens, the fruiting peduncles are erect or ascending." - Druce.
Filing note:Thalictrum kochii
