Etymology of Lidbeckia:
For Professor Erik Gustavus Lidbeck (1724–1803), Swedish naturalist and botanist. He studied under Linnaeus at Uppsala University, who appointed him his personal secretary (1746). Lidbeck was Linnaeus’s only companion and secretary on his travels in Västergötland (a Swedish province). Subsequently, he was appointed associate professor of economics and natural history at Uppsala (1748), a lecturer in medicine at Lund University (1750), where he also became professor of natural history (1756), acting director of the botanical gardens (1772) (where he planted 50 000 mulberry trees produced silk) and professor of economics (1786). He was made a member of the Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1755.
