Etymology of Triumfetta:
For Giovanni Battista Trionfetti (1656–1708), Italian botanist and physician who became a professor of medicine at the University of La Sapienza in Rome in 1680, and director of the Royal Botanical Garden from 1676–1706. Under his administration, the botanical garden became one of the most famous in Europe, and the number of plants, both indigenous and exotic, was considerable. He collected some large herbaria, one of which comprised 13 folio volumes. His book Observationes de Ortu ac Vegetatione Plantarum (1685), published by Dominicus Antonius Hercules, bitterly attacked the view held by Marcello Malpighi (1628–1694), an Italian physician, anatomist and physiologist, that the whole plant is actually in the seed.
Etymology of sonderi:
For Otto Wilhelm Sonder (1812–1881), German botanist and pharmacist, practising in Hamburg. He accumulated an enormous private herbarium in excess of 250 000 specimens from some of the leading botanists and collectors of his day.

He had a special interest in algae, and wrote an algal supplement to Mueller’s Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae and a major paper on Australian tropical algae.

He also wrote Flora Hamburgensis, and was editor and author of several families of Plantae Muellerianae in the journal Linnaea.
