INTRODUCTION. 


The  Flora  of  Cornwall  was  published  in  1909.  Additions 
thereto,  by  Mr.  F.  H.  Davey  and  Dr.  C.  C.  Vigurs  respectively, 
issued  in  the  Journal  of  the  Royal  Institution  of  Cornwall,  191  1 
and  1913,  are  incorporated  in  the  present  Supplement. 

Analysis  of  the  additions  to  the  Flora  since  1909  yields  the 
following  results  :  — 

A. — Species  recorded  in  the  Flora  as  doubtful 

or  an  error,  and  now  included 9 

B. — British     species     (native     or     casual)     not 

recorded  in  the  Flora 23 

C. — British  varieties  and  forms 142 

D.—  British  hybrids         17 

E. — Recorded   in   the  Flora  as   extinct   (Diotis 

maritima,  Cass)  1 

F. — Aliens  (species  and  varieties)      110 

The  species  recorded  in  the  Flora  as  doubtful  or  an  error, 
and  now  included,  are  : — /saris  tinctoria,  Linn;  Silene  cornea, 
Linn;  Arenaria  tenuifolia,  Linn;  Medicago  minima,  Desr;  Senecio 
squalidus.  Linn;  Chenopodium  glaucum,  Linn;  Euphorbia  Esula, 
Linn;  Malaxis  paludosa,  Sw;  and  Nitella  gracilis,  Agardh. 

The  British  species  not  recorded  in  the  Flora  are  : — 
Thalictrum  dunense,  Dum;  Fumaria  major,  Badarro  (paradoxa, 
Pugsley);  Fumaria  neglecta,  Pugsley;  Viola  epipsila,  Led; 
Dianthus  deltoides,  Linn;  Rubus  Scheutzii,  Lindeb;  Purus  inter- 
media, Ehrh;  Hieracium  Peleterianum,  Merat;  Hieracium 
silvaticum,  W.  &  N.;  Verbascum  pulcerulentum,  Vill;  Veronica 
triphyllos,  Linn;  Euphrasia  Kerneri,  Wettst;  Euphrasia  stricta. 


VI.  INTRODUCTION. 

Host;  Euphrasia  con/usa,  Pugsley;  Ajuga  pyramidalis,  Linn; 
Salicornia  appressa,  Dum;  Sagittaria  sagittifolia,  Linn;  Agrostis 
verticillata,  Vill;  Mibora  minima,  Desv;  Poa  palustris,  Linn; 
Atropis  festuciformis,  Richt;  Isoetes  hystrix.,  Durieu;  and  Chara 
delicatula,  Groves  and  Bullock- Webster. 

The  publication  of  Mrs.  Gregory's  British  Violets  in  1912 
stimulated  the  collection  thereof,  with  the  result  that  one  species, 
two  hybrids,  and  fifteen  varieties  or  forms,  have  been  added  to 
the  County  Flora. 

The  Davey  Herbarium  of  Cornish  and  other  British  plants 
was  acquired,  after  his  death,  by  the  Royal  Institution  of  Corn- 
wall. It  is  available  for  examination  at  the  Truro  Museum, 
where  also  the  Tellam  Herbarium  is  preserved.  The  Herbarium 
of  Dr.  Ralfs  came  a  few  years  ago  into  the  possession  of  Mr. 
H.  H.  Goddard,  who  found  the  papers  being  used  for  wrapping 
up  groceries.  The  Thurston  Herbarium  of  Cornish  plants,  still 
in  the  making,  has  been  presented  to  Kew.  Private  Cornish 
Herbaria  are  maintained  by  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Perrycoste,  Polperro; 
Mr.  F.  Rilstone,  Polperro;  Dr.  C.  C.  Vigurs,  Newquay;  and  Mr. 
W.  Wise,  Launceston.  Mr.  Wise  has  also  presented  a  collection 
of  Cornish  and  Devon  plants  to  the  Museum  of  the  Launceston 
Historical  and  Scientific  Society. 

Criticism  that  the  present  Supplement  is  burthened  with 
records  of  well-known  plants  is  perhaps  disarmed  by  the  explan- 
ation that  Davey's  policy  of  recording  localities  for  plants  other 
than  those  which  are  common  and  generally  distributed 
throughout  the  County  has  been  continued.  The  Supplement 
is  an  expansion  of  a  local  Flora,  and  intended  as  a  guide  for 
amateurs  resident  in  or  on  a  visit  to  the  County,  who  like  to 
know  what  plants,  in  addition  to  rarities,  they  may  expect  to 
find  in  any  part  of  it  which  they  are  exploring.  It  has  been  well 
said  by  Mr.  J.  G.  Baker,  formerly  Keeper  of  the  Kew  Herbarium, 
that  **  botanists  coming  into  Cornwall  from  the  eastern  or 
central  parts  of  England  find  much  to  interest  them  in  seeing 
how  abundant  some  of  the  specially  western  species  we-,  and 
how  many  plants,  which  they  take  for  granted  are  likely  to  bet 
common,  are  found  to  be  rare  or  even  altogether  absent." 

We  would  impress  on  amateurs  the  importance  of  not 
merely  recording,  but  preserving,  for  expert  examination, 
voucher  specimens  of  plants  as  to  the  identity  of  which  there 
may  be  any  doubt,  or  which  are  likely  to  be  challenged.  In 
the  absence  of  such  specimens,  it  has  been  found  necessary  to 


INTRODUCTION.  vii. 

exclude  several  plants,  which  might  have  proved  to  be  of  con- 
siderable interest. 

Since  1909  death  has  removed  from  the  ranks  of  those  who 
were  interested  in  the  Cornish  Flora,  or  who  gave  generous  help 
to  those  engaged  in  the  study  thereof,  Mr.  J.  G.  Baker,  Dr.  H. 
Charlton  Bastian,  Mr.  C.  Bucknall,  Mr.  F.  H.  Davey,  Mr.  H. 
Groves,  Mr.  A.  O.  Hume,  Mr.  E.  D.  Marquand,  the  Rev.  E.  S. 
Marshall,  Mr.  Clement  Reid,  and  the  Rev.  W.  Moyle  Rogers. 

We  have  to  express  our  great  indebtedness  especially  to 
the  Journal  of  Botany,  and  the  Reports  of  the  Botanical  Society 
and  Exchange  Club  of  the  British  Isles,  and  Watson  Botanical 
Exchange  Club,  which  have  been  liberally  indented  on. 

For  permission  to  reproduce  the  portrait  of  Davey  we  are 
indebted  to  the  Watson  Botanical  Exchange  Club. 

Many  amateur  collectors  have  to  express  their  gratitude  for 
much  generous  assistance  to  the  Staffs  of  the  Kew  Herbarium 
and  British  Museum  (Natural  History),  Mr.  A.  Bennett,  Dr. 
G.  C.  Druce,  Mrs.  Gregory,  Mr.  J.  Groves,  Professor  A.  Henry, 
Mr.  A.  B.  Jackson,  the  Rev.  E.  F.  Linton,  Dr.  C.  E.  Moss,  Mr. 
H.  W.  Pugsley,  the  Rev.  H.  J.  Riddelsdell,  Mr.  C.  E.  Salmon, 
and  Dr.  F.  W.  Stansfield.  To  Mr.  George  Penrose,  Curator  of 
the  Cornwall  County  Museum,  Truro,  we  are  indebted  for  his 
kindly  help  in  seeing  the  Supplement  through  the  Press. 

The  opportunity  has  been  taken  to  correct  some  of  the 
errors,  which  found  their  way  into  the  Flora.  Many  records 
therein  from  Bridgerule  should  be  withdrawn,  as  the  locality 
is  in  Devon. 

Divisions  one  to  eight  correspond  with  the  eight  divisions 
into  which  the  County  was  divided  for  the  purpose  of  the  Flora. 
Aliens,  of  which  only  a  few  isolated  plants  have  been  found, 
are,  as  in  the  Flora,  printed  in  italics.  The  status — native, 
alien,  etc. — of  plants  recorded  in  the  Flora  is  not  repeated  in 
the  present  Supplement.  An  asterisk  indicates  that  the  plant  is 
not  recorded  in  the  Flora. 

In  a  very  interesting  article  in  Science  Progress,  Vol.  XV., 
No.  57,  1920,  entitled  "  Cornish  Phenology,  1912-19,"  Mr. 
Frank  H.  Perrycoste  and  Miss  H.  M.  M.  Perrycoste  illustrate, 
by  means  of  data  collected  in  connection  with  the  Wild  Flower 
Society,  the  phenology  of  the  part  of  Cornwall  round  Polperro 
durincr  eight  consecutive  years.  *  There  is,'*  they  write,  "no 


viii.  INTRODUCTION. 

need  to  emphasise  the  importance  of  systematised  phenological 
records  as  indices  to  what  one  may  perhaps  call  resultant  climate, 
or  to  point  out  that  the  nett  effect  of  temperature,  rainfall, 
latitude,  elevation,  exposure,  etc.,  is  summed  up  in,  e.g.,  the 
dates  of  flowering  of  plants  without  any  ambiguity  or  possibility 
of  error." 

Botanists  visiting  the  Scilly  Islands  will  find  much  that  will 
interest  them  in  an  article  on  Tresco  Abbey  Gardens  by  Dr. 
A.  W.  Hill,  F.R.S.,  published  in  the  Kew  Bulletin  of 
Miscellaneous  Information,  No.  5,  1920.  The  suggestion  is  made 
therein  that  it  would  appear  possible  to  set  up  a  Flax  (Phormium) 
industry  in  co-operation  with  Cornwall,  and  to  keep  a  Cornish 
Flax  Mill  working  throughout  the  year. 

In  his  Presidential  Address  to  the  South-eastern  Union  of 
Scientific  Societies,  1918,  on  the  Dispersal  of  Fruits  and  Seeds 
by  Ocean  Currents  and  Tides,  Sir  Daniel  Morris  noted  that  a 
seed  of  the  Horse-eye,  Mucuna  urens,  which  is  a  native  of  the 
West  Indies,  had  been  picked  up  in  Cornwall. 

A  note  by  Mr.  F.  Rilstone,  dealing  with  the  new  Cornish 
Mosses  and  Hepatics  from  the  eastern  half  of  vice-county  1 
(West  Cornwall),  was  issued  in  the  Journal  of  the  Royal  Institu- 
tion of  Cornwall,  1917-18,  pp.  310-13.  A  further  article  by  Mr. 
Rilstone,  entitled  "  Cornish  Mosses  and  Hepatics,"  was  pub- 
lished in  the  Journal  of  Botany,  1919,  pp.  3-10. 

A  note  by  Miss  G.  Lister,  published  in  the  Journal  of 
Botany,  1920,  pp.  127-9,  deals  with  the  information  relating  to 
Mycetozoa  from  Cornwall,  which  was  brought  together  by  the 
late  Dr.  Alfred  Adams,  who  collected  mainly  at  Looe  and  the 
surrounding  country,  and  others. 

Quite  apart  from  the  mere  systematic  recording  of  localities 
in  which  the  Cornish  flowering  plants,  ferns,  mosses,  liverworts, 
lichens,  and  fungi  occur,  an  enormous  amount  of  interesting  work 
still  remains  to  be  carried  out  in  the  demain  of  cecology,  i.e., 
the  branch  of  biology  dealing  with  the  relations  of  living  plants 
in  their  surroundings,  their  habits,  modes  of  life,  etc..  in  which, 
it  has  been  said,  the  botanical  morphologist,  physiologist,  and 
systematist,  happily  meet. 


FREDERICK  HAMILTON  DAVEY. 

Frederick  Hamilton  Davey,  the  son  of  Stephen  Henry 
Davey,  was  born  at  Ponsanooth,  in  the  Kennal  Vale,  in  the 
parish  of  Perran-ar-worthal,  West  Cornwall,  on  September  10th, 
1868.  He  was  educated  at  the  village  school,  and,  as  his  parents 
had  a  large  family  and  a  very  limited  income,  he  had  to  leave 
school  at  the  early  age  of  eleven,  and  went  to  work  at  the 
Kennal  Powder  Mills.  It  was  then  that  his  education  really 
commenced,  for,  as  far  as  circumstances  would  permit,  he  read 
wisely  and  widely.  Then,  first  under  the  inspiration  of  his 
father,  to  whose  memory  he  dedicated  the  Flora,  and  afterwards 
of  Canon  Saltern  Rogers,  vicar  of  the  neighbouring  parish  of 
Gwennap,  who  conducted  a  class  for  boys,  he  devoted  himself 
to  Nature  Study,  and  soon  became  fond  of  wandering  in  the 
lanes  and  fields  in  his  spare  time  by  day,  and  reading  such 
Nature  books  as  he  could  get  hold  of  in  the  evenings. 

Although  a  somewhat  delicate  lad,  things  seemed  to  be 
going  well  with  him  until  he  was  seventeen,  when  he  had  his 
first  attack  of  rheumatic  fever,  which  left  a  permanent  defect 
in  his  heart.  This,  however,  did  not  check  him,  for,  during  his 
long  convalescence,  he  continued  his  studies,  and  kept  a  Formi- 
cary, from  which  he  learnt  much  about  Ants  and  their  habits. 
He  had  another  attack  of  rheumatic  fever  at  the  age  of  23,  and 
soon  afterwards  developed  a  chronic  appendicitis.  Still,  nothing 
seemed  to  discourage  him.  From  reading  he  advanced  to 
writing,  and,  in  1891,  he  contributed  his  first  paper  to  the  Royal 
Cornwall  Polytechnic  Society,  on  the  Rushes,  Sedges  and 
Grasses  of  the  Kennal  Vale  and  neighbourhood,  illustrated  by 
a  series  of  well-selected  and  mounted  specimens.  This  was 
followed,  between  1892  and  1898,  by  papers  on  the  Birds  nesting 
in  the  same  locality,  Microscopic  Studies,  the  Flora  of  Kennal 
Vale,  and  Artificial  Formicaries.  For  these  five  papers  he 
received  a  bronze  and  four  silver  medals. 


X.  MEMOIR  OF  DAVEY. 

During  the  winter  session,  1900-1,  he  studied  Chemistry 
and  Assaying  at  the  Redruth  School  of  Mines.  He  never  worked 
in  or  on  any  mine. 

About  this  time  he  settled  down  to  the  study  of  Botany  to 
the  almost  complete  exclusion  of  other  nature  subjects,  and 
seriously  began  the  formation  of  his  excellent  Herbarium  of 
Cornish  and  other  British  plants,  now  in  the  Museum  of  the 
Royal  Institution  of  Cornwall.  About  this  time,  too,  his  health 
improved,  and  he  was  able  to  take  longer  botanical  excursions 
outside  his  immediate  neighbourhood. 

In  1899  he  first  met  Mr.  A.  O.  Hume,  C.B.,  an  enthusiastic 
plant  collector,  and  there  can  be  little  doubt  that  this  proved 
the  turning  point  in  his  career,  and  the  start  of  his  life's  work, 
namely,  the  Flora. 

It  was  at  the  Autumn  Meeting  of  the  Royal  Institution  of 
Cornwall  in  1899  that  he  announced  his  intention  of  preparing  a 
Flora  of  Cornwall,  and  asked  for  the  assistance  of  other  field 
botanists.  This  was  followed  by  a  letter  in  the  local  newspapers 
in  March,  1900,  again  asking  for  help.  This  was  the  commence- 
ment of  my  acquaintance  with  him,  and  it  was  not  long  before 
we  became  very  close  friends.  It  was  a  vast  work  that  he  had 
undertaken,  and  one  full  of  difficulties.  He  was  a  young  botanist, 
at  that  time  quite  unknown  outside  Cornwall,  and  he  was  not 
in  robust  health  or  flourishing  circumstances.  He  had  little  spare 
time;  no  good  herbarium  or  reference  library  near  at  hand  to 
consult;  and  there  was  no  existing  Flora  of  the  County,  which  he 
could  use  as  a  foundation  for  his  own.  However,  he  threw 
himself  undaunted  into  the  work.  He  soon  collected  around 
him  a  band  of  willing  helpers,  willing  because  he  infected  us 
with  some  of  his  own  enthusiasm  and  treated  us  with  unfailing 
kindness,  and  because  we  felt  that  his  was  a  master  mind. 

His  first  contribution,  in  1895,  to  the  Royal  Institution  of 
Cornwall,  to  which  his  more  important  botanical  papers  were 
communicated,  was  an  article  on  a  Local  Study  in  Plant  Dis- 
tribution. This  was  followed  in  1896  by  a  note  on  Bulbils  and 
Gemmae;  in  1897  by  notes  on  the  Acclimatisation  of  Exotics  in 
the  Falmouth-Truro  district;  the  Bulbil  Mite;  Functions  of  Colour 
and  Smell  in  Fungi;  and  the  Dry  Summer  of  1896;  and,  in  1898, 
an  article  dealing  with  some  Natural  History  Records.  In  1899 
he  communicated  the  first  of  a  series  of  papers  on  Cornish 
Botanical  Records,  the  last  of  which  was  a  combined  report  for 
the  years  1909-1910.  His  final  contribution  to  the  Institution 
was  a  record  of  the  Phytogeographical  Excursion  to  Cornwall  in 


MEMOIR  OF  DAVEY.  xi. 

August,  1911.  In  1905  the  Institution  awarded  him,  for  his 
treatises  on  the  Botany  of  Cornwall,  published  in  its  Journal,  its 
triennial  Henwood  Gold  Medal,  which  was  then  for  the  first 
time  given  for  botanical  research. 

Davey's  Tentative  List  of  Flowering  Plants,  Ferns,  etc.,  of 
Cornwall  was  published  privately,  and  not  for  sale,  in  1902.  It 
was  printed  on  one  side  of  the  paper  only,  and  sent  to  all  those 
who  were  doing  field  work  in  the  County,  and  they  were  asked 
to  enter  their  records  on  the  blank  pages.  It  was  the  first  time 
a  Prodromus  to  a  County  Flora  had  been  issued,  and  very 
useful  it  proved  to  be.  It  brought  together  most  of  the  previously 
scattered  records;  it  informed  workers  what  had  been  done;  and 
showed  plainly  what  was  wanted.  It  also  showed  workers  that 
their  earlier  records  had  been  duly  noted,  and  so  encouraged 
them  to  further  research.  The  copies  supplied  to  them  were 
recalled  in  the  autumn,  1905,  and  then  Davey  settled  down  to 
the  production  of  the  Flora.  This  was  printed  and  published 
by  F.  Chegwidden,  of  Penryn,  in  1909.  It  is  a  fine  demy  8vo. 
volume  of  over  600  pages,  and  has  a  good  map  of  the  County 
divided  into  eight  botanical  districts,  and  portraits  of  six  deceased 
Cornish  botanists.  In  writing  the  Flora,  Davey  took  infinite 
pains  to  eliminate  erroneous  and  doubtful  records.  He  knew  that 
some  doubtful  records  by  living  amateur  collectors  remained,  but 
the  difficult  position  in  which  a  refusal  of  them  would  have 
placed  him  was  fully  appreciated. 

Knowing  Davey  as  well  as  I  did,  any  appreciative  remarks 
of  mine  on  the  Flora  might  be  considered  biassed,  so  I  will 
content  myself  with  a  few  quotations  from  independent  botanists. 
In  the  Report  of  the  Botanical  Exchange  Club  of  the  British 
Isles,  1909,  Mr.  G.  C.  Druce  writes  : — "Mr.  Davey  is  to  be  con- 
gratulated on  the  completion  of  an  excellent  work";  and,  in 
1915:  *  *  The  Flora  was  a  well-written  and  trustworthy  description 
of  a  very  interesting  area."  In  the  Journal  of  Botany,  January, 
1916,  in  an  obituary  notice,  the  Editor  writes  of  Davey  as  **  the 
author  of  one  of  the  best  of  our  more  recent  local  Floras"; 
and  of  the  Flora  he  says  : — "  The  review  published  in  the 
Journal  (1909,  388)  gives  an  appreciative  if  somewhat  critical 
notice;  it  may  be  doubted  whether  any  Flora  owes  more  to 
steady  personal  investigation,  hindered  though  this  was  by  ill- 
health  and  business  avocations."  Davey's  own  copy  of  the 
Flora  is  interleaved,  and  contains  many  notes  made  by  him, 
which  are  published  in  the  present  Supplement.  During  his 
last  illness  he  handed  it  over  to  me. 

In  addition  to  his  earlier    papers    to    the    Royal  Cornwall

Polytechnic  Society,  Davey  contributed,  in  1908,  on  behalf  of 
that  Society,  a  paper  on  the  work  of  Carl  Von  Linne  to  the  New 
York  Academy  of  Science  in  connection  with  its  bicentenary 
celebrations  of  the  birth  of  that  great  naturalist.  In  the  same 
year  he  contributed  to  the  Polytechnic  an  account  of  a  botanical 
excursion,  which  he  piloted  around  Swanpool,  Falmouth.  In 
1909  he  read  papers  on  W.  P.  Cocks,  a  Cornish  Naturalist,  and 
on  Neville  Northey  Burnard,  a  Cornish  Sculptor.  In  1911  he 
communicated  a  paper  on  three  Cornishmen,  whose  portraits 
are  hung  in  the  Gallery  of  the  Society,  of  whom  only  one,  Davies 
Gilbert,  P.R.S.,  was  interested  in  plant  life.  In  the  same  year 
he  contributed  his  last  paper  to  the  Society,  on  Charles  William 
Peach,  A.L.S.  He  was  for  some  years  Honorary  Librarian  to 
the  Society,  and  Editor  of  the  Annual  Reports,  to  which  he 
compiled  the  General  Index  from  1898  to  1907.  He  was  elected 
a  Vice-President  in  1908,  and  an  Honorary  Member  in  1912. 
He  acted  as  a  Judge  in  Natural  History  at  the  Society's  Exhibi- 
tions in  1909  and  1911. 

To  the  section  of  the  Victoria  History  of  the  County  of 
Cornwall,  1906,  dealing  with  Botany,  he  contributed  the  intro- 
duction, summary  of  Orders,  botanical  districts  with  records  of 
Flowering  Plants,  and  notes  on  Menthas,  Filices,  and  Characece. 

To  the  Journal  of  Botany  Davey  contributed  a  paper  on 
Cornish  Plants  as  early  as  1900,  and,  in  1907,  his  most  impor- 
tant paper,  on  Euphrasia  Vigursii,  Davey.  Besides  these  his 
contributions  were  many,  viz.,  in  1906  on  the  occurrence  in  Corn- 
wall of  Poly  gala  serpyllacea,  var.  vincoides,  Chodat;  Narcissus 
odorus;  Eriophorum  an  gust} folium,  var.  triquetrum;  Carex  mon- 
tana,  forma;  Veronica  peregrina;  Cornish  Rubi  and  Hieracium 
umbellatum,  var.  curtum;  in  1907  Notes  from  Cornwall;  in  1908 
on  Fumaria  occidentalis;  .Cornish  Plants;  and  a  biographical 
notice  of  R.  V.  Tellam;  in  1910  on  Agrostis  verticillata  at 
Falmoi^th;  Malaxis  paludosa;  Herniaria  hirsuta;  and  a  new 
hybrid  THTath  found  by  Mr.  P.  D.  Williams;  and  in  1911,  his 
last  paper  to  that  Journal  on  Thalictrum  dunense  in  Cornwall. 

To  the  Reports  of  the  Watson  Botanical  Exchange  Club, 
which  he  joined  in  1900,  he  communicated  many  valuable  notes, 
usually  accompanied  by  sheets  of  plants.  His  specimens  were 
always  well  selected,  and  beautifully  mounted.  He  was  a 
careful  and  discriminating  collector,  and  never  ruthlessly 
gathered  rare  plants,  which  were  in  the  least  danger  of  becoming 
still  more  scarce  or  extinct.  In  the  Report  for  1907-8  he  finally 
deposed  Herniaria  glabra  from  any  claim  to  being  a  Cornish

plant.  He  acted  as  distributor  to  the  Club  in  1908.  To  the 
short-lived  Cornish  Magazine,  Vol.  II.,  1899,  he  contributed  an 
article  on  the  plants  growing  in  the  grounds  of  Penjerrick,  near 
Falmouth. 

In  the  local  press  Davey  frequently  wrote  popular  articles, 
which  undoubtedly  stimulated  interest  in  the  Cornish  Flora.  He 
occasionally  delivered  excellent  popular  lectures  on  Nature 
subjects  in  various  parts  of  the  County.  At  the  Central  Technical 
Schools  for  Cornwall  at  Truro  he  lectured  on  Botany  during  the 
session  1904-5,  and  was  at  one  time  examiner  in  Agricultural 
Botany  to  the  Cornwall  County  Council.  He  was  elected  a 
Fellow  of  the  Linnean  Society  in  1903,  and  was  then  its  youngest 
Fellow.  When  the  South  London  Botanical  Institute  was 
founded  in  1911,  he  was  appointed  one  of  the  eleven  original 
Fellows. 

His  most  successful  work  was  with  the  genus  Fumaria.  He 
discovered  at  least  one  new  species,  F.  neglecta,  Pugsley,  and 
possibly  another,  determined  by  Dr.  Fedde  as  a  continental 
species,  F.  major,  Badarro,  but  named  by  Mr.  Pugsley  as  a  new 
plant,  F.  paradoxa,  Pugsley.  In  either  case,  the  plant  was  new 
to  the  British  Isles.  He  also  added  Fumaria  purpurea,  Pugsley, 
to  the  Cornish  Flora.  His  next  best  work  was  with  the  Brambles 
(Rubi),  he  being  the  discoverer  of  no  less  than  nine  new  to  the 
County.  In  the  genus  Euphrasia  he  introduced  to  science  a  new 
critical  species,  E.  Vigursii,  Davey.  He  also  added  a  variety  in 
Poly  gala  serpyllacea,  var.  vincoides,  Chodat.  His  further  addi- 
tions to  the  Cornish  Flora  included  Ranunculus  trichophyllus 
and  heterophyllus,  Reseda  inodora,  Viola  calcarea,  LJlex  Gallii, 
var.  humilis,  a  Potentilla  hybrid,  Matricaria  suaveolens  (M.  dis- 
coidea),  which  has  now  become  a  common  Cornish  weed,  Gen- 
tiana  lingulata,  a  Verbascum  hybrid,  Omphalodes  verna, 
Mimulus  moschatus,  Veronica  peregrina,  Euphrasia  borealis,  a 
Salix  hybrid,  Lemna  gibba,  Agrostis  verticillata,  and  many  other 
British  varieties  and  hybrids,  and  aliens. 

His  best  field  work  was  done  in  the  years  1906  and  1907,  by 
which  time  he  had  acquired  a  sound  knowledge  of  plants.  His 
health  was  then  fairly  good,  and  he  was  not  deeply  engaged  in 
the  clerical  work  of  the  Flora.  He  took  no  interest  in  Cryptogamic 
botany  apart  from  the  Pteridophyta  and  Characece. 

After  the  strenuous  work  of  preparing  the  Flora,  and  passing 
it  through  the  press,  his  field  botany  naturally  slackened  to  some 
extent.  In  August,  1911,  he  very  efficiently  conducted  the  In- 
ternational Phytogeographical  Excursion  through  the  Lizard 
district  and  other  parts  of  West  Cornwall.  This  was  carried

through  at  high  pressure,  and  I  have  little  doubt  led  to  the  severe 
heart  attack  which  seized  him  in  the  autumn  of  that  year,  and 
kept  him  in  bed  for  several  weeks.  From  this  he  slowly  re- 
covered, so  that,  in  the  following  Spring,  he  was  able  to  take 
short  drives  and  very  short  walks,  during  which  he  carefully 
studied  the  Potentillcs  growing  near  his  house.  This  partial 
recovery  was  unhappily  of  brief  duration,  for  in  July,  1912, 
cerebral  thrombosis  supervened.  When  this  cleared  up  a  little, 
he  was  able  to  understand  what  was  said  to  him,  but  was 
frequently  at  a  loss  for  some  words,  particularly  proper  nouns. 
After  some  further  time  he  was  occasionally  able  to  read,  but 
could  never  write.  After  leading  an  active  life,  and  loving  to 
read  the  Book  of  the  Glorious  Author  written  on  the  open  pages 
of  moor,  forest  and  field,  his  condition  was  truly  pitiable.  Still, 
he  was  always  cheerful,  at  any  rate  when  I  was  able  to  pay  him 
a  visit,  and  he  continued  to  take  a  keen  interest  in  Botany, 
particularly  in  Mr.  Rilstone's  discovery  of  Nitella  gracilis.  When 
shown  a  plant  that  he  knew,  he  could  seldom  speak  the  name, 
but,  by  turning  over  the  pages  of  the  Flora,  he  would  very 
quickly  put  his  finger  on  the  right  name.  He  was  usually  con- 
fined to  bed,  but  was  able  to  get  down  stairs  occasionally,  and 
rarely  to  walk  into  his  little  garden.  The  end  came  suddenly 
on  September  23rd,  1915.  His  body  was  laid  to  rest  in  the 
Wesleyan  Cemetery  of  his  native  village  Ponsanooth,  and, 
although  not  a  Wesleyan,  I  was  privileged  to  read  the  Lesson 
at  the  funeral  of  my  true  friend.  Appreciative  obituary  notices 
were  published,  in  the  Journal  of  Botany,  with  portrait,  in 
January,  1916,  by  the  Editor;  in  the  Report  of  the  Botanical 
Society  and  Exchange  Club  of  the  British  Isles  by  the  Secretary; 
and  in  the  Report  of  the  Watson  Botanical  Exchange  Club, 
1914-15,  by  myself. 

Davey  resided  in  his  native  village  until  1907,  when  he 
moved  to  "  Beechwood,"  Perranwell,  in  the  same  parish.  In 
1911  he  changed  his  residence  to  "St.  Pirans,"  just  outside 
Perranwell  village. 

In  1902  he  succeeded  his  father  as  Works  Manager  of  the 
Cornwall  Arsenic  Company's  Works  at  Bissoe,  having  previously 
acted  as  his  assistant  for  several  years.  From  this  position  his 
failing  health  compelled  him  to  retire  in  1912.  He  was  never 
married. 

His  contributions  to  science  were  recognised  by  a  Civil  List 
grant  in  1913. 

The  name  of  Davey  is  perpetuated  by  Dr.  A.  Henry  in  a 
new  variety  of  Elm,  Ulmus  major,  var.  Daveyi,  Henry,  which 


MEMOIR  OF  DAVEY.  XV. 

occurs  sparingly  in  Cornwall  and  elsewhere.  One  tree  stands 
in  the  hedge  opposite  the  gate  of  "Beechwood,"  Perranwell. 

It  was  a  good  thing  that  Davey  appeared  on  the  scene 
when  he  did,  for,  although  the  earlier  Cornish  botanists  did 
excellent  pioneer  work,  they  kept  almost  entirely  to  their  own 
districts;  they  worked  singly;  many  of  their  records  were  not 
published,  and  such  as  were  are  mostly  scattered.  Davey 
supplemented  their  work  by  collecting  their  records  together, 
and,  by  visiting  many  parts  of  the  County,  obtained  a  first-hand 
knowledge  of  the  range  of  plants  far  better  than  any  of  them 
had.  But  he  did  much  more  than  this.  By  his  enthusiasm  he 
created  a  new  school  of  Cornish  botanists,  which,  it  is  to  be 
hoped,  will  continue  the  good  work  their  master  started,  not 
only  for  the  work's  sake,  but  also  with  the  sentiment  that  they 
are  doing  what  he  would  have  wished  to  be  done. 

I  may  include  one  little  incident,  which  we  frequently 
referred  to  afterwards.  On  one  of  his  week-end  visits  to  me, 
while  we  were  out  walking  together,  we  met  a  mutual  friend, 
an  elderly  Minister,  who,  on  account  of  his  loveable  character, 
was  known  as  "Daddy."  After  a  few  words  of  greeting  he 
said  solemnly  : — **  Davey,  if  you  knew  your  Bible  as  you  know 
your  botany,  you  would  be  a  power  in  the  world,"  and  passed 
on. 

I  have  good  authority  for  stating  that,  in  his  profession, 
Davey  was  a  faithful  and  reliable  Agent  to  his  Directors,  who 
felt  towards  him  a  personal  regard,  and  realised  that  the  em- 
ployment they  were  able  to  give  him  was  not  really  commen- 
surate with  his  attainments,  and  offered  little  scope  for  his 
special  qualifications.  By  those  working  under  him  he  was 
regarded  with  those  feelings  of  affection,  which  he  inspired  in 
all  with  whom  he  came  in  contact. 

As  a  botanist  he  was  very  careful,  thorough,  painstaking 
and  hardworking.  He  was  a  delightful  correspondent,  and  his 
letters,  written  in  a  clear  clerical  hand,  with  usually  a  sparkle 
of  wit  in  them,  were  a  pleasure  to  read.  When  necessary  he 
could  be  very  tactful,  and  always  avoided  hurting  the  feelings 
of  anyone.  He  never  annexed  the  records  of  others,  and,  being 
perfectly  fair  himself,  expected  to  be  treated  in  like  manner. 
As  a  companion  he  was  always  genial  and  cheery,  sympathetic 
with  the  troubles  of  others,  but  never  grumbling  about  his  own. 
It  was  a  pleasure  to  walk  with  him  in  his  own  neighbourhood, 
to  see  how  much  he  was  respected  and  loved  by  all.

writes: — "  These  elusive  micr»> species  are  all  the  more  diffi-

between  species,  to  say  nothing  of  highly  probable  crossing. 
Another  difficulty  arises  from  the  fact  that  the  pods  vary  in 
shape  even  on  a  single  plant."  B.E.C.,  1914,  p.  J 18.  Cornish

It  is  probable  that,  up  to  the  time  of  the  publication  of  Davey's 
Flora,  var.  neglecta  was  used  to  include  the  glandular  form 
of  S.  salina,  irrespective  of  seed-surface  (vide  Bab.  Man.,  ed., 
IX.,  p.  68),  though  Hooker's  Student's  Flora,  ed.,  HI.,  says  :  — 
"  glandular  above  .  .  .  seeds  papillose."  Since  1912  the 
name  var.  neglecta,  Syme,  is  apparently  applied  to  those 
plants  having  papillate  seeds,  without  reference  to  glandu- 
losity.  Vigurs,  Vide  B.E.C.,  1912,  p.  238;  1913,  p.  460;

G.  modestum  occurs  in  profusion  over  three  separate  areas  in 
Cornwall,  all  near  the  sea.  There  are  no  intermediates 
between  it  and  Robertianum.  It  has  a  rose-coloured  corolla 
just  half  the  width  of  G.  Robertianum  .  .  .;  corolla  is  more 
irregular,  petals  narrower  and  not  overlapping,  anthers  bright 
yellow,  not  red,  peduncles  short,  thick,  and  densely  glandular- 
hairy,  carpels  blunt  above,  covered  with  raised  lines  and  dots. 
I  have  tabulated  the  differences  after  examining  many 
hundreds  of  plants  at  each  locality,  and  G.  modestum  appears 
to  be  a  perfectly  good  species,  which  is  spreading  from  three 
well  defined  centres  in  Cornwall.  G.  purpureum  I  only  know 
as  a  ballast  casual  at  Par;  it  has  purple  anthers,  and  a  curious 
elongated  zig-zag  panicle  in  fruit.  Mr.  E.  G.  Baker  carefully 
examined  my  specimens  with  authentically  named  specimens 
from  France  of  G.  modestum."  Clement  Reid,  B.E.C.,  1909,

are  split  into  five  new  species.  '*  It  would,"  they  write,  "  be 
very  helpful  if  botanists,  before  drying  their  specimens,  would 
note  the  following  points  : — Stem  whether  prostrate  or  ascend- 
ing; size  and  colour  of  flower,  and  whether  petals  equal  or 
uneaual,  spotted  or  not;  colour  of  anthers,  pollen,  and  stigma;

'  The  closeness  of  the  connection  with  type  seems  to  be  estab- 
lished especially  by  the  combination  of  the  strong  deeply 
furrowed  glabrous  stem  with  the  comparatively  short  curved 
prickles  and  showy  flower  of  the  panicle.  It  is,  however, 
considerably  unlike  in  habit  and  coloration,  besides  having 
leaflets  narrower  and  soon  bare  beneath,  with  panicle  (when 
fully  developed)  considerably  branched  and  purplish  petals. 
From  R.  rusticanus,  towards  which  it  takes  a  step  from  type, 
it  may  be  readily  distinguished  by  its  epruinose  stem,  its  more 
compressed  prickles,  and  longer  stamens;  and  from  my  R. 
Briggsianus,  which  at  first  sight  it  recalls,  by  its  sulcate  stem 
and  short  curved  panicle  prickles,  as  well  as  by  its  different 
leaves,  greyer  sepals,  and  purplish  petals."  Rev.  W.  M.

"  A  careful  examination  of  the  plant  (a  solitary  bush)  and  its 
surroundings  induced  all  three  botanists  (Graebner,  Schroeter, 
and  Druce)  to  agree  that  the  hybrid  must  be  E.  Tetralix 
vagans  and  not  cinerea  x  vagans,  since  the  presence  of  the 
glandular  hairs  must  have  come  from  the  former  species. 
The  longer  stamens,  the  inflorescence,  and  the  habit,  sug- 
gested the  presence  of  vagans,  both  species  being  in  the. 
immediate  vicinity."  New  Phyt.,  1911,  p.  316.  The  hybrid 
is  established  at  Kew  Gardens.

"  Mr.  P.  D.  Williams,  of  Lanarth,  Cornwall,  kindly  sent  me  last 
September  a  curious  variation  of  the  Cornish  heath,  which  he 
had  known  for  ten  years.  The  cuttings  come  quite  true.  It 
never  really  flowers,  but  young  vegetative  shoots  are  formed 
with  tiny  clustered  leaves  1mm.  long.  The  pecularity  may 
be  caused  by  a  mite  or  gall,  but  Dr.  W.  G.  Smith,  to  whom 
I  sent  it,  has  not  seen  anything  like  it.  Mr.  E.  W.  Swanton 
has  little  doubt  that  a  mite  causes  the  abnormality  in  growth."

7.  A  single  plant  at  Trelanvean  Farm,  St.  Keverne,  on  the  north- 
west corner  of  a  rough  moor.  P.  D,  Williams.  The  finder 
took  cuttings  (which  grew),  and  also  layered  the  plant.  In  the 
following  year  the  original  plant  and  the  layers  were  trodden 
into  the  ground  by  cattle  and  destroyed.  Now  growing  in  Mr. 
Williams'  garden  at  Lanarth,  St.  Keverne,  and  at  Kew  Gardens. 
The  new  plant  differs  from  the  usual  form  of  the  species 
in  the  shape  and  colour  of  its  corollas,  characters  which  are 
not  easy  to  make  out  in  dried  material.  The  corollas  are 
broadly  campanulate,  with  a  wide  open  mouth,  and  well  de- 
veloped, more  or  less  reflexed  lobes.  The  bending  back  of 
the  corolla  lobes  varies  with  the  age  of  the  flowers,  but  in 
mature,  though  not  faded,  examples,  it  is  decidedly  more 
marked  than  in  typical  Erica  vagans.  In  colour  the  fresh  corol- 
las are  a  charming  rose-pink  with  no  tinge  of  purple.  .  .  . 
Examples  of  reversion  to  the  parent  plant  have  been  noticed 
at  Kew  by  Dr.  Hill  and  others."  Turrill,  loc.  cit.

Concerning  two  forms  of  this  plant  Mr.  Rilstone  writes  : — "One 
which,  as  far  as  my  experience  goes,  is  of  rare  occurrence, 
has  the  pale  flowers,  oval  sepals  gland-fringed  at  the  oase, 
and  short  style  of  V.  agrestis,  but  the  numerous  jointed  hairs 
on  the  stem  and  pedicels  are  not  '  mostly  gland-tipped  '  as 
Syme  says  is  the  case  with  typical  V .  agrestis.  The  other — ?, 
more  frequent  but  by  no,  means  common  plant — presents 
difficulty  chiefly  in  the  capsule  being  rather  thickly  clothed 
with  short  straight  or  curved  glandular  hairs,  with  longer 
glandular  hairs  intermixed."  Journ.  Bot.,  1918,  p.  114.

Jn  Journ.  Bot.,  1922,  p.  2,  Mr.  Pugsley  notes  that  he  can  find  no 
British  specimen,  which  seems  to  him  really  to  agree  with 
undoubted  continental  exsiccata  of  E.  stricta,  and  he  can  only 
conclude  that  all  of  our  plants  are  referable  to  a  polymorphic 
E.  nemorosa,  or,  more  rarely,  to  E.  brevipila,  E.  borealis,  or 
E.  Kerneri.  In  British  Euphrasiae,  Supp.  Journ.  Bot.,  1917, 
Mr.  Bucknall  considers  that  many  gatherings  named  E. 
stricta  are  nemorosa,  but  admits  stricta  from  four  English 
Counties.

late  Mr.  Marshall,  except  that  the  flowers  appear  to  be  less  /

URTICACE/E. 

Genus    Ulmus, 

Since  the  publication  of  the  Flora,  much  work  has  been  done 
on  the  British  Elms,  and  a  little  on  those  occurring  in  Cornwall. 
Although  much  remains  to  be  done,  a  few  tentative  observations 
may  be  useful.  I  had  the  advantage,  in  1911,  of  having  the 
trees  around  Newquay  named  by  Dr.  C.  E.  Moss.  The  study 
of  the  Elms  is  complicated  by  the  different  names  adopted  by 
various  writers.  C.  C.  Vigurs. 

Ulmuf  glabra,  Hudson  (U.  montana,  Stokes  ;  U.  scabra,  Miller) . 
Wych    Elm. 

Probably  rarer  than  the  records  in  the  Flora  would  suggest, 
and  some  of  them  should  probably    be    transferred    to  U.

U.  major,  Sm.   (U.  hollandica,  Miller). 

Usually  called  the  Dutch  Elm,  though  Professor  Henry  dissents, 
as  it  is  not  found  in  Holland.  Probably  almost  as  common  as 
the  Cornish  Elm,  and  may  be  native.  The  few  records  in  the 
Flora  give  quite  a  wrong  impression  of  its  prevalence.

It  is  underspreading  like  the  type,  has  very  pendulous  branches, 
and  somewhat  pubescent  twigs,  and  the  epicormic  branches 
never  produce  corky  ridges.  The  leaves  are  smaller,  2J/2  in.

URTICACE/E — MYRICACE/E.  125 

It  is,  as  Professor  Henry  says,  a  native,  and  always  reproduced 
by  suckers,  B.E.C.,  1915,  p.  280.  Davey  says  it  is  common  in 
most  parts  of  the  county.  Its  strict  habit  and  small  leaves 
make  it  quite  easy  to  identify.  '  In  Cornwall  it  usually  occurs 
in  hedgerows."  Moss,  Birtish  Elms,  Card.  Chron.,  1912. 

The  Elms  are  easy  to  collect  for  the  purpose  of  identification, 

»only  twigs  growing  from  large  branches  (not  suckers),  with 
well  developed  leaves,  being  necessary.  They  are  not  easy 
to  identify  from  written  descriptions.  A  short  description  of 
them  will  be  found  in  Bab.  Man.,  10th  ed.,  1922,  Appendix

slender  trees,  he  was  led  to  try  the  pine-aster  fir,  from  ob- 
serving that  this  tree  grew  well  spontaneously  from  some

to  conditions  of  soil,  water  available,  light,  etc.,  and  appear 
frequently  under  a  variety  of  forms,  often  of  rather  different 
aspect.  If  you  could  form  a  representative  collection  of  these 
'varieties'  as  they  occur  in  Cornwall,  and  state  on  the  labels

The  recent  history  of  this  plant  as  a  British  one  is  very  inter- 
esting. On  the  strength  of  specimens  from  Ireland  it  was  for 
some  time  accepted  as  British,  but,  in  B.E.C.,  1917,  pp.  57-61 , 
Mr.  Druce  writes  : — "Both  Dr.  Rendle  and  Dr.  Stapf,  I  be- 
lieve, now  agree  that  the  true  festuciformis  has  mot  been 
found  in  the  British  Isles."  Curiously,  before  this  was  pub- 
lished, Mr.  Thurston  had  found  the  real  plant,  and  it  had 
been  named  by  Dr.  Stapf.  Dr.  Rendle  writes  to  me,  May 
20,  1920,  saying:  —  Dr.  Stapf  considers  this  to  be  the  same 
as  the  typically  Adriatic  grass,  and  different  from  the  Irish 
specimens  formerly  named  G.  festucceformis.  I  am  content 
to  leave  the  matter  there,  at  any  rate  for  the  present.**  C.  C.
