Edmondston co…mpiled the first known list of Shetland plants at the age of 11. He discovered several rare plants growing on the serpentine rocks on Unst, including the endemic Shetland Mouse-ear Cerastium nigrescens, known as Edmondston's Chickweed on the island. In 1845, he produced his Flora of Shetland, which, despite a few shortcomings, was a considerable achievement given his age (20) and it is still an important reference for Shetland botany.

Author of the excellent book on the great butterfly collectors, 'The Aurelian Legacy', Michael Salmon believes Henry Noel Humphreys was equal in talent to one of the finest insect illustrators of the 19th Century, John Curtis. High praise indeed. Coupled with the prodigously talented John Obadiah Westwood, it is no wonder that this work is thought of so highly.
