Hugh Hamshaw Thomas

British botanist and historian of science (1885-1962).

Hugh Hamshaw "Ham" Thomas FRS (29 May 1885 – 30 June 1962), was a British paleobotanist. One of his major contributions was to combine thinking about plant fossil anatomy with ecology, and consideration of how these related to non-extinct plants. He also led a change in attitude to fossils, from museum-based to a more exploratory, field-work based subject.

Fokienia (Fujian Cypress) A.Henry & H.H.Thomas 1911
plant genus in the cupressaceae family
Fokienia is a genus of conifer tree belonging to the cypress family. In its characteristics, Fokienia is intermediate between the genera of Chamaecyparis and Calocedrus. Genetically Fokienia is much closer to Chamaecyparis, and not all researchers recognize Fokienia as a separate genus. The genus comprises only one living species, Fokienia hodginsii or Fujian cypress (Chinese: 福建柏; pinyin: Fújiànbǎi; Vietnamese: Pơmu), and one fossil species (Fokienia ravenscragensis). Fokienia hodginsii is native from southeastern China (provinces of Zhejiang, Guizhou, Yunnan and Fujian) to Northern Vietnam
