Saw more of these and photographed them today in another location, so will post when I catch up! A wiki article says they are similar to Eruca sativa. I think it is the same plant which is prolific in our neighbours garden.We have virtually eradicated it from our own garden as it can become very invasive.
Thanks Jopy, that one is not in my book but it looks close. I will have to go and look again in that area and take more photos. I was actually trying to photograph a butterfly but it flew. It was one of the whites.
Hello! This looks to me like Ravenissa blanca, picture of leaves will be very helpful...here is the link http://www.adene.es/grupos/flora/Fichas/tabid/634/xmmid/1602/xmid/574/xmview/2/Default.aspx
