Etymology of Brownleea:
For Rev. John Brownlee (1791–1871), British botanist who was a gardener, theologian, Xhosa linguist and missionary in South Africa. He arrived in Cape Town in 1817 and established a mission station on the site that would become King William’s Town. He was a well regarded botanist and had an extensive garden of local plants, and sent local specimens to William Henry Harvey, an Irish botanist who came out to South Africa in 1835 and who wrote Flora Capensis.
Etymology of galpinii:
Named after Ernest Edward Galpin (1858-1941), a South African botanist and banker. He left some 16,000 sheets to the National Herbarium in Pretoria and was dubbed "the Prince of Collectors" by General Smuts. Galpin discovered half a dozen genera and many hundreds of new species.
