Etymology of Wimmerella:
For Elfrieda Franz Wimmer (1881–1961), an Austrian botanist, naturalist, teacher and Roman Catholic priest. From his early youth, he had an interest in insects and plants. He studied in Vienna and Graz, and taught at St George’s College in Constantinople. In 1907, he was ordained and became chaplain in Vienna. Later, he became director of the Elisabeth Hospital Sisters of Mercy in Vienna until his retirement in 1958. In his spare time, he travelled to Asia Minor. From 1943–1953, Wimmer contributed to the book Das Pflanzenreich (The Empire of Plants) by Adolf Engler, in particular for the Campanulaceae-Lobelioideae. In 1944, he was appointed correspondent of the Natural History Museum in Vienna.
