Etymology

The varietal epithet honours G.O.K. Sainsbury, the collector of the holotype, who, as so aptly noted by H.N. Dixon (1941) “has not only done much to add to our knowledge of the highly interesting moss flora of New Zealand, but has stimulated interest in its study among many new workers.”
