See Desmond p. 639. - (2) Warburg's nickname "Heff" \[also "Hep"\] was derived from the Winnie the Pooh character Heffalump, outstanding because of his appetite; the nickname was acquired at one of the Sunday tea parties given by Gilbert Carter at the Cambridge botanical garden. #### Eponymy *Warburg Nature Reserve*, Henley-on-Thames (see V.N.
