Etymology

Named by Zotov (1971) for John Buchanan FLS (1819–1898), Scottish born draughtsman, and New Zealand’s first government employed botanist (Taylor 2002). Buchanan first described Simplicia buchananii as a species of Poa, P. uniflora Buchanan but that species name was preoccupied (P. uniflora Muhl.) (Zotov 1971).
