Etymology of levynsiae:
Named after renowned Capetonian botanist Margaret Rutherford Bryan Levyns(née Michell) (1890–1975). She was a formidable lecturer and tour-de-force of identification, producing a guide to the genera of the Cape Peninsula, and a monograph on Lobostemon and Muraltia. She later married John Levyns and by her death had collected over 12 000 specimens.
