Etymology of Kleinia:
For Dr Jacob Theodor Klein (1685–1759), German mathematician, lawyer and diplomat employed by the Danziger administration and in the diplomatic service. He was a keen naturalist, and his countless diplomatic journeys enabled him to collect many specimens and have one of the largest private nature collections of the 18th century. He also founded the world, famous Danzig botanical garden. An author of many works, he questioned the Linnaean classification (unsuccessfully), and the taxonomic method in his book Summa Dubiorum Circa Classes Quadrupedum et Amphibiorum in Celebris Domini Caroli Linnaei Systemate Naturae (1743) is based entirely on externally visible characteristics. He was a member of the Royal Society of London.
