#### Eponymy
*Drummondita* W. H. Harvey (1855; also dedicated to his brother Thomas (1780-1835), q.v.) (To avoid confusion with *Drummondia* A. P. de Candolle (1830) and *Drummondia* W. J. Hooker (1828, *nom. cons.*), both dedicated to Thomas, Harvey "... adopted the termination "ita," – being an I for James, and a T for Thomas!"). *Note*: *Drummondia* A. Chaves Batista & H. Maia (1963) is dedicated to Octavio Drummond, Brazilian phytopathologist.
