Sarah Amherst, Countess Amherst (née Archer, later Sarah Windsor, Countess of Plymouth; 1762–1838), credited as Sarah Amherst, was a British naturalist and botanist who lived in India. She identified several species which were named after her, including a variety of pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae) and a flowering tree (Amherstia nobilis).[1][2][3]

The tree was first brought into notice by Lady Sarah Amherst, a great promoter of botanical science in India. Lord Amherst spent five years in that country, and made an excursion to the Himalaya mountains, at the foot of which they discovered these rare trees.
