phalarisn.

Brit.

/ˈfalərɪs/, U.S.

/ˈfælərəs/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin phalāris.

Etymology: < classical Latin phalāris (also phalēris ) canary grass or a similar grass < Hellenistic Greek ϕαλᾱρίς (Attic-Ionic ϕαληρίς ) < Byzantine Greek (Doric) ϕαλᾱρός (compare Hellenistic Greek (Doric) ϕάλᾱρος , (Attic-Ionic) ϕάληρος ) white, having a patch of white ( < ϕαλός white, ultimately < the same Indo-European base as bald adj.) + -ις -id suffix².

Originally: canary grass ( Phalaris canariensis). Later: (in form Phalaris) a genus of annual and perennial grasses native to temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, having flat leaves and compact panicles of one-flowered spikelets; (also phalaris) any grass of this genus, esp. P. canariensis, P. arundinacea (reed canary grass or gardener's garters), and (Agriculture) P. aquatica, used as a drought-resistant forage grass, esp. in Australia.Valid publication of the genus name: Linnaeus Species Plantarum (1753) I. 54.

1548 W. Turner Names of Herbes sig. F.ij^v Phalaris is founde in many places of Italy.

1597 J. Gerard Herball ii. clxxi. 471 The chaffie tuft which containeth the seed is like the other [psyllium], but more like the eare of Phalaris, which is the eare of Alpisti, the Canarie seed which is meate for birdes, that come from the Ilands of Canarie.

1634 P. Holland tr. Pliny Hist. World xxvii. xii. 289 As for Phalaris, it hath a long slender stem like vnto a reed, in the top whereof it beareth a floure bending downward; and the seed resembleth that of Sesama.

1754 New & Compl. Dict. Arts & Sci. III. 2413/2 Phalaris, in botany, a genus of the triandria-digynia, with a bivalve corolla, and only a single seed contained in the corolla.

1791 Nat. Hist. Birds III. vi. 93 It [sc. the canary-bird] inhabits the Canary islands, feeding principally upon the seeds of the phalaris, or canary seed.

1880 Encycl. Brit. XI. 58/1 Neither of these two great divisions [of grasses] will well accommodate certain genera allied to Phalaris, for which Brown proposed..a third group (since named Phalarideæ).

1911 Agric. Gaz. New S. Wales 22 407 Phalaris and Kentucky Blue are spreading well.

1942 Austral. Vet. Jrnl. 18 182 In three districts in South Australia the grazing of stock on pastures consisting almost exclusively of Phalaris has resulted in the occurrence of a ‘staggers’ syndrome.

1956 Brit. Vet. Jrnl. 112 390 When the disease is noticed early the sheep are moved to a fresh pasture containing no phalaris and the nervous condition soon improves.

1961 G. H. Thorp Connell & Hadfield's Agric. (ed. 7) xvii. 274 Due to its upright habitat, its strong winter growth and its ability to resist drought very well, phalaris has a place in New Zealand farming, mainly in special purpose pasture.

1977 Weekly Times (Melbourne) 19 Jan. 10/5 Some stands of the sub clover and phalaris have been harvested for seed.

1987 Stock & Land (Melbourne) 12 Feb. 26/4 Here we've sown a bit of phalaris, that's all. That's a good feed; it grows well with a bit of rain. You've seen how green that phalaris paddock is, whereas the rest is dry.

2003 Guardian 19 Apr. (Weekend Suppl.) 58/1 Good plants [for balconies or roof terraces]include the grass, gardener's garters (Phalaris).

Compounds

phalaris staggers n. Veterinary Medicine a disorder characterized by abnormal gait and other neurological signs, seen sporadically in sheep and cattle grazing on Phalaris species, esp. on new growths of P. tuberosa.

1946 I. W. McDonald in Austral. Vet. Jrnl. 22 91/2 A disease of sheep and cattle characterized by profound nervous symptoms and degenerative changes in the central nervous system was described. The disease was associated with the consumption of the perennial grass Phalaris tuberosa and thus had become colloquially known as ‘phalaris staggers’.

1970 K. V. F. Jubb & P. C. Kennedy Pathol. Domest. Animals (ed. 2) II. vii. 387/2 The lesser syndrome, known as phalaris staggers, occurs when the plant is in lush growth and in 3–10 days after animals are given access to such pasture. Affected sheep appear normal when quiet, but, when disturbed, they show stiffness, incoordination, a staggering gait, and a tendency to fall.

1995 Jrnl. Animal Sci. 73 909 Toxic effects of these grasses include neurological damage (Phalaris staggers).
