Etymology of Dalechampia:
For Jacques Daléchamps (1513–1588), French botanist, physician and professor of surgery, philologist, humanist and naturalist who lived in Lyon. His most important work was Historia plantarum generalis (1586–1587), a compilation of botanical knowledge of his time. He also made many translations of important works into French and Latin. His name is given variously as Daléchamps, Dalechamp, Dalechampius, or D’Aléchamps. The spelling of names was not as fixed at that time as it is now.
Etymology of capensis:
From the Cape Province of South Africa, previously known as the Cape Colony. -ensis is a Latin adjectival suffix meaning “pertaining to or “originating in,” Thus these organisms were first discovered in the Cape. In the early days of exploration this epithet was frequently applied to anywhere in South Africa or even Southern Africa
