Re: Rivulus cryptocallus

["Bill Matthew" <billum at billinge_freeserve.co.uk>]

A "butt" is a barrel (English english), originally (I think) for storing
wine.(Richard 111 -Princes in the Tower -Shakespeare et al.) Hence a water
butt is a butt for water. The current usage implies collected rainwater for
gardening purposes. But not exclusively.
