Etymology of Wahlenbergia:
For Georg Göran Wahlenberg (1780–1851), Swedish naturalist, geographer and doctor, who became a demonstrator in botany (1815–1828) and professor of botany at the University of Uppsala (1828–1851), succeeding Carl Peter Thunberg. Wahlenberg made his main work in the field of plant geography, and published, among other things the Flora Lapponica (1812), a considerably extended version of the work of his compatriot Linnaeus, who wrote a publication of the same name (1737). His other works were based on his trips to Norway, Finland and the plant world of northernmost Sweden. Wahlenberg was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1808.
Etymology of ecklonii:
Named after Christian Frederick Ecklon (1795-1868), a Danish apothecary, plant collector and traveller. His plant collecting trips were amongst the most noteworthy of the early plant collectors and many new species were described by him.
