Etymology of Maytenus:
From the Chilean vernacular name maitén or mayten, derived from the Mapuche Indian name mantun, the local name for the species. The Mapuche are one of three surviving tribes of the ancient Araucanian linguistic group of Indians who lived in Chile and Argentina before the Incas or the Spaniards arrived.
Etymology of heterophylla:
From the Greek heteros = ‘the other of the two’; and the Greek phyllon = ‘leaf’.
