Dear friends,

I am believing all the Indian species with the commemorative epithets:
heyneana, hyneanum, heynei ... are named for Dr B. Heyne, German botanist
and traveller, co-author of Herbarium Maderaspatense ... Origins of Plant
Names<http://books.google.co.in/books?id=RSGOJB2lwmUC&pg=PA91&lpg=PA91&dq=Dr+B+Heyne+Herbarium+Maderaspathense&source=bl&ots=ZHWbH4isdb&sig=NJyKX4aW10gFkblrokUp4JOTimI&hl=en&sa=X&ei=5DLjUKqOJsrprAe4_IBA&ved=0CDQQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=Dr%20B%20Heyne%20Herbarium%20Maderaspathense&f=false>

Benjamin Heyne, Scottish surgeon, naturalist and botanist --

*any of the species commemorative of him* ?

Regards.
