durmastn.

Brit.

/ˈdəːmɑːst/,

/ˈdəːmast/, U.S.

/ˈdərˌmæst/

Etymology: A recent word. The first element is doubtful (see note below); the second is mast n.², fruit of forest tree.The original authority for ‘durmast’ appears to be Nichols, on whose information Martyn inserted it in his ed. of Miller's Dictionary, whence it has passed into general book use. According to W. Atkinson in Trans. Hort. Soc. (1833) I. 336, the name appears to have been mistaken: he says ‘The woodmen in the Forest call certain oaks that have dark-coloured acorns Dun-mast, but those dun-coloured acorns are found both of the Q. pedunculata and Q. sessiliflora; I have raised trees from them, and consider them as only accidental varieties, and that the colour of the acorns may be occasioned by something peculiar in the soil’. (No ground has been found for connecting ‘durmast’ with French durelin or German Dürreiche, varieties of the oak. Welsh derw is, of course, out of the question.)

A sessile-flowered sub-species or variety of oak ( Quercus pubescens, or Q. sessiliflora): see quot. 1866. (Usually durmast-oak.)
