Etymology of Hebenstretia:
For Johann Christian Hebenstreit (1720–1791), German physician and botanist. He studied medicine at the University of Leipzig from 1740–1748 and practised in Naumburg before becoming professor of botany and natural history at the Russian Academy of Sciences at St Petersburg. In 1751 he became a personal physician to Count Kyrylo Rosumowskyj, the president of the academy, for two years and was stationed in the Ukraine before returning to Leipzig. In 1755 he accepted the position of professor of botany and natural history in St Petersburg, but deteriorating health forced him to return to Leipzig in 1961. Little is known of his life thereafter.
Etymology of dentata:
From the Latin dentatus meaning 'toothed'. Each tooth is angled equally as compared with serrate in which the projections are angled more on one side than the other (forward pointing).
