An arctic-alpine species requiring a base-rich substrate. Some<br />
more southerly sites in limestone grykes are liable to be<br />
destroyed through quarrying. An outstanding adventive record<br />
from a railway bridge in Wellingborough, v.c. 32, has been<br />
verified by Dr Anne Sleep, but is not plotted here.<br />

26.1 x 3 Polystichum X lonchitiforme<br />
(Halacsy) Becherer<br />
(P.Ionchit is x setiferum)<br />
This hybrid was found in Glenade, v.c. H29, with the parents<br />
and has been confirmed by observing meiosis in the spore<br />
mother cells (A.Sleep, pers. comm.). Without the cytological<br />
confirmation it is virtually impossible to separate from<br />
P. x illyricum (see M .J.P . Scannell , Irish Nat. J., 19: 79; 1977).<br />
