| Summary: | 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. 0, EE gee a ~ Nee ee nneee ennteetaene add i 4 buena( 0ierAalhe >) 4i >Inih on Vinge ADC VAs Yad” U¢ SLA Les l JINNIV] a RSITY 4 OF JTAH e i) £; ) ° b , OG eea RTtaeetaryLICMESONTYMmeOLreaDGDG“ ee frenancientINree tosChee a is de a Oh OL,CG ne ae Saeve-abtieatentatnseenaioat tpatandenipiaeniieieh ipeieiteaedieiieteehliinidotaesiliniiaiinaidiiasatdedadiaimedaimiaiineiatsinhcdeie RTeT ) i ars oat ENGLISH BOTANY; OR, COLOURED FIGURES OF BRITISH PLANTS, WITH THEIR ESSENTIAL CHARACTERS, SYNONYMS, AND PLACES OF GROWTH.

Dr. PULTENEYofBlandford Dorfetthire was fo obliging as to fendusliving plants of this very interefting {pecies in: the end of Junelaft , gathered on bogs in his neighbourhood, and we embracewith pleafure the opportunity ofclearing up that obfcurity in whichit has been enveloped. The root is perennial. Leaveslike thofe of other fpecies of this genus, but rather more delicate and pellucid, reticulated with red veins, and muchinvolute in the margin. Stalks hairy, efpecially in their lower part, with fhort {preaading glandular hairs tipped with a vifcid fluid. Flowersalittle nodding. Calyx fearcely two-lipped, but almoft equally 5-cleft. Tube of the corolla nearly cylindrical, yellow fireaked with red; limb in 5 equal ee {preading fegments, of a pale lilac orifice hairy; {pur inflated at the bate, then contracted, terminating in a very bluntconical figure, and whendried (the only {tate in which Linnusfawit) mich thicker at the end thanat the middle, ftreaked with red. Stamina flattifh. Germenhairy. Stigma blunt, excavated on the upperfide. Capfule perfectly glohien crowned with the withered ftigma. That this is the real P. lufitanica we learn from Portuguefe {pecimens comparedwiththofe of Grifley, after which probably (feen in fomeherbartum) Linneusdefcribed it, for he had it not in his own. That it is P. villofa of Liehtfoot appears from a fpecimen from Skye, given to Dr. Smith by the Rev. Mr. Stuart, as well as from the figure in Flo, Scot. Neither can there be any doubt of its being»what Ray and Hudfonintended. The better to di ftinguifh this fpecies from others, we may remark that P. vulgaris ae an unequal limb, fpur, and oval cap fies fharp flender >, alpina a very thor conical fpur, and a long roftrated «cota : P. villofa a flender fharp fpur, and obcordate comprefied capfule, with fhort round leaves. Its hairyftalk and regular limb agree nearly with P. /u/itanica, but the wéllofa is the{mallerinall its parts. ee coe ae ie | es = ONCE edieLiLSeinCae eine glad eee eeee een ehh oS WS! “S98 471% [ 146 J PYROLA uniflora.

The roots are perennial, long and woody, abounding (as well as the herb) with a pure taftelefs colourlefs mucilage, for which reafon its decoétion is much ufed in diforders of the kidneys or bladder, and in all cafes where emollients are wanted. The ftems are numerous, upright, two or three feet high, round, naked below and purplith in the upper part covered with numerous alternate leaves, various in breadth, moreor lefs evidently 5-lobed and 5-ribbed, unequally ferrated in the margin.

Its {ting is more painful than either of our common f{pecies whofeftru€ture is fo well illuftrated by Mr. Curtis in his Flora Londinenfis. This is an annual of very luxuriant growth, about 2 feet high, ftem obtufely angular, often purple. Leaves on longith footftalks, ovate, fometimes heart-thaped, pointed, very ftrongly ferrated, paler beneath. Flower-ftalks axillary , in pairs, thofe of the male flowers panicled. Their calyx is of four equal leaves. Stamina fpreading. Suppof ed nectary an obfolete concave tubercle in the centre. Female flowers in a round head. Calyx of two hemifpherical yalves clofely embracing the germen, and holding thefeed till quite ripe. Seed oval, dark brown, highly polifhed.

Mr. Robfon foundit on walls about Darlington, from whence he fent us this wild {pecimen, flowering in July 1792. The roots are perennial, branched, and throwout many long decumbent ftems, which are round, red and naked in their lower part, taking root in manyplaces; above theyare alternately branched, terminating in thick club-fhaped tufts of leaves, clofely upright, a imbricated. Che flowering ftems are more foot high, clothed with more fcattered leaves, and terminated by a large handfome cyme of yellow flowers. The calyx is very glaucous, often tipped with red. Flowers often in 6 or 7 parts inftead of 5. Allithe. eaves are glaucous, thick and fucculent, fubulate, unconnected with the ftem at their bafe, which is like a little blunt fpur; they are more comprefled, and much more clofely imbri- cated than in S. reflexum, neither are they ever recurved as in that fpecies. . = = . ® 2 nas Dilleniusfirft well afcertai. ned this plant in his THortus menifis, where hehas given a goodfigure of it, tab. 256, f. 3: _ i tlora Danica, ¢ab. ¢9, is a very diiferent plant, the Sedum laxatile of Wiggers, Flo.

Dr. Smith gathered it in Weftmoreland, and on the rock of Dumbarton-caftle in Scotland. The root is generally fuppofed to be annual, throwing out many ftems, branched and decumbent at their bafe, then upright and more fimple, round, reddifh, clothed with alternate rather thick-fet leaves, and terminated by {mall bifid or trifid cymes of flowers. The leaves are very thick and fucculent, oval, glau~ cous, with a blunt protuberance at their bafe, below their ate tachment to the ftem. The flowers are at firft thickly cluftered together; but as the cyme expands, they appear more reMote, one always ftanding at the firft divarication of the cyme. Thecalyx refembles the leaves, and isobtufe. The petals have a reddith rib, and are often {potted with the fame colour at their tip. ‘The capfules are membranous and fmooth, This {pecies has coft us no fmall trouble to determine accu- rately.

Desparrinc of procuring recent wild fpecimens of this very rare plant, we cannot refrain from exhibiting a figure of a cultivated one, which has been compared withwild ones, and foundin no refpeét to differ. It grows in boggyplaces, about running ftreams, and was foundin Ray’stime in the Eaft Riding of Yorkfhire, as well as about King’s Langley in Hertfordfhire. Dr. Smith faw, in the year 1781, {pecimens gathered by Dr. White in a bog near Severus’s hills at York; but the plant was then loft, from the place having been drained, fo that we really do not knowa certain ftation of this Lyfimachia at prefent. It has a long root with whorls of fibres like many aquatic ] plants. f The ftem to or 20 inches high, erect, round, per- ] fimple, flightly woolly, covered with oppofite, lanceolate, entire leaves, which are pale beneath, and fomewhat revolute, s€CUI The bunches of flowers ftand oppofite, one from the bofom of each leaf about the middle of the ftem, ere, pubefcent, each of about ten flowers, on partial footftalks, accompanied byfoli- tary lanceolate bracte.
