I am very pleased to dedicate Ortizacalia to my fiancée, Dra. Rosa del Carmen Ortiz, in recognition of her keen eye and helping hand in the field, herbarium, and lab. Although while collecting Rosita is invariably in a menisperm liana mind-set, she has pointed out to me many composites, including Pentacalia vining in the forest of Peru, where she is most at home. Ortizacalia is so named also to draw attention to its relations to Pentacalia, and follows a string of generic names of Senecioneae using the suffix of Cacalia, which includes Digitacalia Pippen, Koyamacalia H. Rob. & Brettell, Miricacalia Kitam., Monticalia C. Jeffrey, Sinacalia H. Rob. & Brettell, and Talamancalia H. Rob. & Cuatrec. (English)
