James Petiver
Posted on September 2nd, 2007 by admin
James Petiver (1663-1718) was a London apothecary, a Fellow of the Royal Society as well as London’s informal Temple Coffee House Botany Club, famous for his study of botany and entomology. He named the Red Admiral butterfly after a British Naval Flag and named Fritillary after a chequered dice box.
Petiver received many plant specimens, seeds and much other material from correspondents in the American colonies.
