English botany, or, coloured figures of British plants, with their essential characters, synonyms, and places of growth. Volume 5

James Sowerby was an English naturalist, illustrator and mineralogist. He studied painting at the Royal Academy in London. This is the second of his illustrated volumes of English botany, issued in parts from 1790 to 1814. The work is in thirty-six volumes with more than twenty-five hundred hand-colored plates. An enormous number of plants were to receive their first formal publication within this work, but the authority for these came from the initially unattributed text written by James Edward Smith.

This Satyrium grows in Alpine fir forests, notin « pastures and thickets.” “Our specimens were sent fresh from Scotland by the post, and came in perfectly good order, as plants of this tribe dry so very slowly. The roots are perennial, truly creep ing, not bulbous, very succulent, downy, running among moss, and attaching themselves to decayed fragments and leaves of fir in the manner of fungi. Leaves in tufts at the end of each runner, on broad sheathing footstalks, ovate, succu lent, strongly 5- or 7-ribbed, and reticulated with transy h are often brown, and the leaves are now an colour. Stalks erect, 6 or wh, » downy upwards, clothed with a few altern ate sheathing bractez, terminated with an erect spike of numerous pale flesh-coloured fragrant flowers, leaning one way, but turning a little spirally round the stalk; each being accompanied by a lanceolate, concave, coloured, downy bracte a, which also is clothed with viscid longer than the germen, downiness, as well as the three broader external petals. Haller describes the flower as having only three petals, besides the nectary, which Lightfoot copies, having probably never seen the plant alive, for his plate is excessively faulty. Mr. lanceolate petals (as in the figure Sowerby found two internal ) which, like those of Orchis ustulata, are very difficult to be detected in a dried specimen, being “ glued as it were” to the upper one, which the others are not by any means, though that great naturalist might makeHaller Says they are.

Syn. 367. £ i eS ONE of our rarer English plants, for which we are obliged to the Rev. Mr. Abbot of Bedford and the Rev. Mr. Hemsted of Newmarket. It grows in pits and ditches which are partly ried up, or in places where water has stagnated during winter. The root is annual, tapering, and not much branched. Stems several; the principal erect, often branched; lateral ones spreading and curved upwards; all square, purplish, smooth, clothed with numerous, alternate, smooth, entire, linear-lanceolate leaves, some of which now and then approach to an elliptical figure. Flowers solitary, axillary, sessile, delicate and short-lived, appearing in July, purple, and of a regular figure, as we think all true species of Lythrum ought to be, though Linnzus has admitted some with very unequal petals. They have generally 12 teeth to the calyx, alternately erect and spreading, 6 petals, and as many stamina; but some flowers have only 10 teeth, 5 petals and 5 stamina, or (as Linneus says) exclude a sixth part of the natural number in their fructification.

Lichen glomuliferus is found on the trunks of trees in old mountainous woods in England, Scotland, and Wales, very abundantly in Colonel Johnes’s woods at Hafod, where ours was gathered.

The fruit of this tree ripens late in autumn, panicles of brown punctated berries, larger than those of the Hawthorn, which, when the frost has touched them, are of an exceedingly pleasant acid flavour, and are sometimes sold in the London fruit-shops. They are esteemed strengthening to thestomach and bowels. Old Tragus, whose figures and their accompaniments sometimes express the virtues of plants with more truth than decorum, gives a ludicrous exhibition of two ittle boys under this kind of Service tree, p- 1010, in order to illustrate its (apparently very powerful) effects in expelling worms, fe wy Nl w we ~ Ot) ms ¥ NY AS ~ 9) mt ny AY ae AS KC © oew es DAS DG 0D: WAS) \\ XY A os Tus tree is most frequent in the north-west and midland counties, though also found here and there in Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk. We received it wild from Mr. Woodward. _ It is of considerable size, but of slow growth, and the wood is consequently hard. The bark is smooth and ash-coloured. Young branches green and slightly downy, clothed with alternate handsome smooth leaves, of a firm not succulent substance, always more or less accurately 7-lobed, reticulated with small veins, serrated, deciduous. Flowers numerous, in large terminal cymose panicles, appearing early in May; their flowerstalks and calyx downy; petals cream-coloured; styles 3, 4, or 5, and the seeds in proportion, an instance (among many others) how very ill-founded the orders and genera are of Linneus’s Icosandria Digynia, Trigynia, and Pentagynia, as Faller and his disciples long ago contended. y Wibbes . te hr Cie i . midddddd a.

Mr. Wood, F.LS. to whom we are indebted for the communication, remarks, Professor Martyn mentions having seen it at Battersea, near the mill, in considerable quantity, above 40 years ago. It differs from the Saffron Crocus in having broader leaves, with flatter or less revolute edges; yet that difference is not so constant as the great one of the stigmas, which in the plant before us are comparatively very little divided, the segments wedge-shaped, much and unequally notched, erect (not hanging out of the flower), of a paler colour, and quite destitute of the smell and cordial qualities of Saffron.—Their times of flowering are also widely different, this being one of the earliest A’ "ay ‘Caer Deering Noitingh. 60, a RO Cun OTRO vernalis ceruleus. $) 412 me With.

It is said to grow also in the mountainous parts of Cornwall and Staffordshire, and may now and then be net with in old gardens, having been formerly cultivated for the sake of its fruit, which is like, but inferior to, a Medlar. It flowers in May. The tree is of a middle size, not unlike the Mountain Ash, of very slow growth, not flowering till it arrives at a great age, and the wood is very hard.

Capsule pendulous, when young green, pear-shaped and very obtuse, with a depressed lid; but as it ripens becoming of a fleshcoloured red, and when arrived at maturity the orifice is much dilated, so that in some specimens the capsule may by called almost campanulate.
