104 Giardina & al.: A catalogue of plants growing in Sicily

Perhaps a F. bastardii with intermediate characteristics between F. capreolata (Nicotra
1913) and F. muralis Sonder ex W. D. J. Koch according to Pignatti (1982). In every case
its taxonomic value is uncertain, to be investigated. – Gardens, vineyards, uncultivated
land. – Naro, Capo d’Orlando, Alcamo, Balestrate, Ficuzza (Lojacono 1889); Vallelunga,
Trapani (Nicotra 1893 a); Capo Mulini (Nicotra 1913); Siracusa al Teatro Greco (Zodda
1928). – R.
* Fumaria muralis Sond. ex W. D. J. Koch, Syn. Fl. Germ. Helv. ed. 2: 1017 (1847)
Often misidentifed with F. muralis Gren. & Godr. = F. bastardii, but probably absent from Sicily
(Pignatti 1982), it is however accepted by Fl. Europ. 1: 309 (1993).

* Fumaria petteri Guss., Fl. Sicul. Syn. 2(1): 239 (1844) nom. illeg. [Isonym: F. petteri
Rchb., Icon. Fl. Germ. Helv. 3: 1 (1838); “F. media” sensu Sommier, Fl. Pantelleria: 9
(1922) an F. media Loisel.; olim F. capreolata b. minor Guss. (1828) inde incl. in F.
petteri sub nomine var. majoris Guss. (1844)]
Binomial used by Nicotra (passim) but confused by auct. pl. con F. muralis Sonder ex W. D.
J. Koch. This entity, according to Nicotra (1913) remains rare in Sicily. Gardens, vineyards,
uncultivated land. – Milazzo sul Lido, Messina al Salvatore e alla Lanterna, Ustica, Alicuri,
Felicuri (Gussone 1844: sub F. petteri a. major); Pantelleria (Gussone 1844: sub F. petteri b.
palmata + c. cossyrensis); Acitrezza (Nicotra 1893 a); Messina, Taormina (Seguenza), Ortora
(Borzì), Meri (Zodda), Palermo alla Favorita (Todaro), Linosa (Aiuti) (Nicotra 1913); Capo
Mulini (Nicotra 1913: sub ?F. serotina); Pantelleria: comune (Sommier 1922). To be recon-
sidered. – R.

* Fumaria pia Nicotra in Atti Rend. Accad. Dafn. Acireale ser. 2, 1: 5 (1905).
Gardens, vineyards, uncultivated land. – Everywhere in the region. To be re-identified, and
investigated. – C.
507. Fumaria nemorosa Lojac. in Naturalista Sicil. 2: 298 (1883)
Intermediate between F. capreolata and F. flabellata, going towards F. sepium Boiss. = ?F.
bastardii. – Grazing lands in high mountains up to 1200 m on.s.l. – Ficuzza alla base della
Busambra, Valdemone a Mirto (Citarda), S. Basile (Citarda e Riccobono) (Lojacono 1889). To
be investigated. – R.
508. Fumaria bicolor Sommier ex Nicotra, Fumar. Ital.: 55 (1897)
Gardens, vineyards, uncultivated land. – Locally common at Pantelleria and Linosa, but absent
from Sicily s.s.!; Pantelleria: comune (Sommier 1922); Pantelleria: coltivi e non coltivati, anche
a M. Gelfizer, Khaggiar, M. Gelkhamar (Di Martino 1963). – R.
509. Fumaria bastardii Boreau in Duch., Rev. Bot. 2: 359 (1847) [F. gussonei Boiss.; F.
petteri Guss. non Rchb.; F. jordanii Guss.; “F. media” sensu Bastard non Loisel. in
Desv.; F. muralis Gren. & Godr. non Sonder ex W. D. J. Koch; F. confusa Jord.]
According to Nicotra (1913) F. gussonii is nothing else than F. muralis G. & G. tending towards
F. agraria. Still according to Nicotra’s opinion (loc. cit.: 82) the different F. boraei, bastardii,
platycarpa, affinis, apiculata, pia are forms of F. muralis Gren. & Godr. It is again distinguished
by Nicotra (loc. cit.) sub F. muralis Gren. & Godr. In several varieties laxa, glaucescens, pia,
minor taxonomically doubtful. – Gardens, vineyards, uncultivated land. – Everywhere in the
region. – C.
