Etymology of Walleria:
For Horace Waller (1833–1896), British botanist, protestant pastor and plant collector. He abandoned his career in his father’s stock broking business to become a lay missionary to Central Africa (1860–1864), and took part in David Livingstone’s failed Zambezi expedition (1858–1864), during which he discovered two species of this genus and a new gazelle, which was named after him (Litocranius walleri). On his return to England, he became a pastor of St John’s Church, Chatham (1867), a member of the Society for the Abolition of Slavery (1870), vicar of Leytonstone (1874), then rector of Twywell (1874–1895), during which time he wrote many publications about both his African experiences and the need to liberate slaves.
