In my county, as well as in many parts of England, the popular name is "foumart," which is said to be derived from "foul marten."

The foumart is the special abhorrence of the game-keeper; it does more damage amongst game and poultry than any of the other Mustelidae, and consequently greater pains are taken to trap and shoot it, in fact, so much so that I wonder that the animal is not now extinct in the British Isles.
