Etymology of Oldenlandia:
For Heinrich (Hendrik) Bernhard Oldenland (Oldeland) (c 1663–1697), German-born South African botanist and plant collector. He studied medicine at Leiden University under Paul Hermann (1646–1695) before coming to the Cape in 1688. He was the compiler of the first plant list at the Cape. He went on an expedition to near Aberdeen, Eastern Cape (1689), at the time the most easterly point explored. He served the government in various capacities: master-gardener of the Company’s Garden, land surveyor and the equivalent of town-engineer (superintendent of streets, roads, bridges, buildings). He compiled the 13-volume Herbarus Vivus consisting of 380 indigenous plants with a second list of exotic plants. He was working on a kruidboek of dried and mounted plants when he died.
