Etymology of Fockea:
For Gustav Waldemar (Woldemar) Focke (1810–1877), German physician, plant physiologist and amateur microscopist. He studied at the University of Heidelberg, obtaining a PhD in 1833 and did post-doctoral studies under Stephan Ladislaus Finite (1804–1829), professor and director of the botanical garden at the University of Vienna, and under professor Christian Gottfried Erenberg (1795–1876) at the University of Berlin; the founder of the science of micropaleontology and microbiology, and also spent some time at the University of Halle. Despite all his training he did not publish many papers concerning his research, although he delivered a lot of lectures. He was highly involved in scientific societies and a member of the German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina among others. His major works were De respiratione vegetabilium (1833) and Physiologische Studien (1847).
