How many indigenous Asian fruit trees have been named after Asians? I do understand that Latin as a dead (unchanging) language is maybe the most suitable for taxonomic purposes but...we might question the plant names commemorating colonial officers, Jesuit missionaries and European aristocrats...
After gaining independence Asian countries have erased some colonial reminders by changing names of cities and streets. However, many of the botanical names of their native plants will enshrine the names of their previous conquerors forever!?
You can imagine an Asian student studying botany, discovering that even the indigenous plants his forefathers had been eating for thousands of years are named after foreigners, it will not help to overcome his post-colonial mentality (complex ?) or whatever...
