Willoughby Prescott Lowe

Willoughby Prescott Lowe (born December 10, 1872 in Tylers Green , Buckinghamshire , † October 31, 1949 in Exmouth ) was an English ornithologist and naturalist .

Live and act

His father was Pastor Edward Jackson Lowe (1825-1893), his mother's name was Mary nee. Wainright (1841-1880). One of his siblings was the pastor George Lincoln Gambier Lowe (1865-1833).

At the tender age of seventeen he sought out William Henry Flower (1831–1899) to seek advice from him on how best to implement his ornithological ambitions. Shortly thereafter, in April 1888, he sailed for the United States to visit his brothers in Colorado . He lived here in the wilderness for seven years and made his first collections in the Rocky Mountains and in the area around his ranch. In 1895 he married Annie, daughter of Captain John Seals, and returned to England two years later. His second son JPW Lowe, who drowned in a tragic accident in 1931, shared a passion for science with his father. As a collector for the Natural History Museum (NHM), Lowe contributed more than 10,000 specimens to the museum's collection.

His first expedition took him in 1907 via Colombo and Hong Kong to Manila , which he reached on May 21, 1907. Since he was initially stuck in Manila, Lowe decided to visit the sulphurous Sibul springs near Abucay to collect. On June 4, he was able to leave Manila in a gunboat towards Puerto Princesa to visit his cousin John Roberts White (1879-1961) and to explore the area there. On June 7th, he arrived in Puerto Princesa. As a result of this expedition an article was written in which he described 82 species.

Together with the captain Ernest Clifford Hardy (1866-1934) of the Mutine he went in 1910 on a research trip to the west and south-east coast of Africa. The trip started in Cape Town in November . Their first destination was Ichaboe Island . From there the route led them along the west coast to Sierra Leone . Finally, Lowe returned to Cape Town in April 1911. David Armitage Bannerman (1886–1979) was responsible for describing the bird yield on this trip , with Bannerman using Lowe's comments for his publication.

On the advice of the NHM, he accompanied Captain Gordon Philip Lewes Cosens (1884-1928) (erroneously also GS Cozens and GP Cozens) to Kenya , Uganda and the Nile from 1912 to 1913 . Lowe left England on August 19, 1912 and met Captain Cozens in Nairobi on September 17 . Both went on two different study trips together. The first started in Kijabe and led south to the German-English border and back to Naivasha and lasted from September 24th to December 9th, 1912. The second started on December 21st, 1912 in Nakuru , here they broke northwards through the province of Rift Valley to Nimule and Gondokoro on the upper reaches of the Nile. The ornithological yield of the trip has been described by Claude Henry Baxter Grant with the kind permission of William Robert Ogilvie-Grant .

In the winter of 1913/1914 he accompanied Abel Chapman (1851-1929) and Captain Hubert Lynes (1874-1924) to Sudan . They started in Bur Sudan on the way to Khartoum . First they spent time on the Blue Nile in Sannar Province . Then they slowly followed the White Nile to the No See .

At Christmas 1920 Lowe contacted Bannerman from Lagos . Lowe, who was there at the invitation of Arthur Maurice Yate Dane (1885-1953), waited here for his steamboat HMS Dwarft . He used the waiting time and collected 395 bird hides at the Iju Water Works . On February 25, 1920 Lowe reached Freetown with the HMS Dwarft . On March 12th, Dane and Lowe left the boat to explore the previously little explored Rokel and its numerous islands. So they reached Tasso Island on the same day. Other islands such as Yatward, Mayahgba, Rotoombo etc. were also among their collection areas.

In 1922 he accompanied Rear Admiral Hubert Lynes (1874–1942) on his journey through Darfur , Kurdufan and the provinces of the Nuba Mountains .

In October 26, 1922, he traveled with Herbert Ronald Hardy (1900-1954) on the steamship Gambia towards Ivory Coast . They reached Grand Bassam on November 14th . The journey took them from Grand-Bassam to Bouaké . The return journey of the two took place on January 8, 1923 with the steamship Akabo .

When Arthur Stannard Vernay (1877-1960) asked him in 1923 whether he would like to accompany him on an expedition from Rangoon to Bangkok , Lowe was traveling to the Asian mainland for the first time. Their route took them via Mawlamyaing over the Tenasserim Mountains to Bangkok.

Together with Bannerman and his wife Muriel geb. Morgan († 1945) he went on an expedition to Tunisia in 1925 . Bannerman published in 1927 in The Ibis a detailed report on the yield of this expedition.

Between 1925 and 1928 he accompanied Jean Théodore Delacour (1877-1960) and Pierre Charles Edmond Jabouille (1875-1947) on four expeditions through Indochina . Delacour and Jabouille (1875–1947) published the results in their 5-volume work Les Oiseaux de l'Indochine française , as well as in some joint articles with Lowe in The Ibis .

In 1928 he was traveling on behalf of the NHM in Gambia , where he cooperated with Emilius Hopkinson (1869-1951). There was no dedicated publication on the expedition. Rather, Bannermann described many of the results in his 8-volume work The Birds of Tropical West Africa .

Under Delacour's leadership, he collected together with James Cowan Greenway (1903–1989), Raymond Decary (1891–1973), Richard Archbold (1907–1976), Philip Atkinson DuMont (1903–1996) and Austin Loomer Rand (1905–1982) on the Anglo-French expedition to Madagascar . Delacour published the results in the journal L'Oiseau , Rand in Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History . From Madagascar he accompanied Delacour and Greenway to Indochina in October 1929. Here the botanist Eugène Poilane (1887–1964) joined the group. They camped in Sa Pa , near the Fansipan the border between Tonkin and Yunnan on. She gathered in the area over a period of two months. Then it went to Vịnh Hạ Long . Eventually they gathered in Hoi Xuan in the north of Annam near the Lao border. In April 1930 the group returned to Europe.

On January 28, 1931 Low broke under the leadership of Richard Meinertzhagen with his companions Janet Wood nee. Clay (1907–1997) and Constantine Evelyn Benson (1895–1960) embarked on a research trip to the Ahaggar plateau . They reached Algiers on January 30th . After crossing the Atlas Mountains , the group reached El Golea on February 4th . Here they collected four days and found a hermit crab - Fossil of the species Kerunia cornuta Mayer Eymar , 1899. On February 8, they reached the abandoned today Fort Miribel 90 km south of El Golea. A day later they crossed 277 kilometers of barren dark desert and arrived in In Salah . The next day it continued, but her car stopped 25 kilometers away because of a sand storm. After repair work, they did not reach the village of Arak until shortly before midnight. From this village they finally reached their destination Ahaggar on February 10th. Here people began collecting seriously. On February 12th they finally continued to In Ekker before continuing to Tamanrasset on the 14th . Here they organized camels and donkeys with which they traveled north through the province of Tamanrasset on the 17th . On the evening of the 18th they got into bad weather. It rained all day on the 19th and on the 20th. So they experienced a violent flood with a rumbling roar. On the 21st they therefore moved to an altitude of 1620 meters. From here the path led them north at an altitude of 2080 meters and from there the next day into a wide valley. On the 4th they set up camp at a height of 2225 meters at a small rock pool that the locals called In Fergat . On March 6, they advanced to Iliman and camped in a wadi near a granite tower 2,400 meters high. They followed the wadi to Tit , a village they reached late on March 13th. About In Eker, they gathered in the Arak canyons. They left Arak on the 19th and traveled back to Algiers via In Salah and El Golea, which they reached on March 28th.

At the invitation of the provincial administrator of the province of Iringa Thomas Gordon Buckley (1886-1932) Hubert Lynes visited Tanganyika with his friend Lowe . First they met in Nairobi (Kenya), where one enjoyed the hospitality of Victor Gurney Logan Van Someren (1886-1976) and his wife. Van Someren put them in touch with Yokana Kiwanuka († 1944), who had previously worked for him as a ship's captain. Kiwanuka drove them along the Great North Road to Iringa , where they were received by Mr. and Mrs. Buckley on November 17th. Buckley recommended the Ubena plateau in Njombe . They lived in Njombe for six weeks. They were assisted by the district administrator FJ Lake, his wife and his assistant RM Bell. Otto Mieth, the planter, was kind enough to accommodate them for a while in his sawmill on the outskirts of Iringa. With the help of GC Baker, who at that time managed Frank O'Brien Wilson's (1857-1923) farm, they made trips to the Udzungwa Mountains , an area that was then called Uhehe, and the Dabaga plateau . Yokana prepared the hides while Lowe was busy collecting. When they left Tanganyika Territory , they were initially guests with Mr. and Mrs. Stignell in Dar es Salaam . Stignell was the administrator of the Central Province at the time.

On 23 November 1933 he traveled with Fanny Waldron on the steamer Appam the Elder Dempster Lines from Liverpool to Takoradi where they arrived on 12 December. From there they took the train to Kumasi . You were the guest of Major Francis Walter Fitton Jackson (1881-1936), who served as commissioner of the Ashanti region . They drove towards Tepa and bow direction from the southwest, there to a hunting ground of King I. Prempeh to arrive. On January 6, 1934, the journey continued north to Wenchi . Here she received Francis Charles Fuller (1866–1944). It went on to Ejura and Lake Bosumtwi .

On November 28, 1934, Mrs. Waldron set off again from Liverpool on a second expedition and reached Takoradi on December 11. The train first took them to Kumasi again. This time they crossed the Black Volta at Bamboi to get to Bole . On January 6th, they were received by District Administrator Guthrie Hall . On January 13th we went north to Wa and from there three days later to Lawa in the Lawra District . The then district administrator Edward Wilfrid Ellison made his house available to them as accommodation. On January 18th, Tumu was their next destination. From there they made their way to Navrongo and then to Tamale . After crossing the Black Volta again, they arrived in Yeji . On January 27th they reached Ejura again, where they gathered until February 2nd to travel to Mampong . The group stayed here until February 2nd.

With The trail that is always new from 1932 and The end of the trail from 1947, Lowe published two books. The illustrations for the first book came from Henrik Grönvold (1858–1940) and his already mentioned second son.

In his later years he worked as a volunteer curator at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter. He took care of the redesign of the collection until a serious accident involving a blackout during the Second World War made this impossible and probably robbed him of his eyesight.

Since 1914 he was a member of the British Ornithologists' Union (BOU). In 1943 he was elected its vice-president. In 1948 he received the Union Medal of the BOU

Dedication names

Michael Rogers Oldfield Thomas (1858-1929) and Martin Alister Campbell Hinton (1883-1961) honored him in 1923 in the name of Lowe's gerbil ( Gerbillus lowei ). With the Leo monkey ( Cercopithecus lowei ) Thomas named another mammal species in his honor in 1923. In 1933 Reginald Innes Pocock named an otter civet species Cynogale lowei . Jonathan Kingdon named a Serval genet subspecies Genetta servalina lowei in 1977 . Claude Henry Baxter Grant and Cyril Winthrop Mackworth-Praed dedicated the name of the Njomberötel ( Sheppardia lowei ) to him in 1941 . Described by Grant 1914 Busch Ortega subtype ( Pterocles quadricinctus lowei ) is a synonym for today nominate considered. Cyanomitra olivacea lowei Vincent , 1934 is now considered a synonym for the hermit nectar bird subspecies ( Cyanomitra obscura ragazzii ( Salvadori , 1888)). In Sylviella lowei , a name to William Robert Ogilvie-Grant used in 1911, is the Langschnabelsylvietta subtype ( Sylvietta rufescens Ansorgei Hartert, E , 1907).
