Missing plant species

I list below a number of plants which do not seem to appear on the List and await your comments:
Cut leaved Elder Sambuca nigra laciniata
Common Vetch Vicia sativa sativa
Babington's Leek
Yellow juiced Poppy P. lecoquii
Spathulate Fleawort
Narrow leaved Birds foot Trefoil Lotus glaber
Tall Thrift Armeria maritima elongata
Chard Beta vulgaris cicla
Prostrate Broom Cytisus s.maritimus
 

Hi Peter

Most of the ones you list are subspecies. We stick to species-level taxa for listing purposes, hence you can add Sambucus nigra, Vicia sativa, Allium ampeloprasum, Armeria maritima, Beta vulgaris, Cytisus scoparius, Tephroseris integrifolia, but not multiple subspecies of them.

"Yellow juiced Poppy P. lecoquii" is currently on the list as Papaver lecoqii

"Narrow leaved Birds foot Trefoil Lotus glaber" is currently on as Lotus tenuis.

We are aware that there's a very big update of botanical taxa being worked on between BSBI and UKSI at the moment, so we're largely waiting on them to finish that to deal with various questions of plant species / subspecies.

Hope this helps for now

Cheers

Andy
 

Many thanks for your explanation.
