Miliusa gokhalaei Ratheesh, Sujanapal, Anil Kumar & Sivadasan – A new species:

I am sharing the literature of a newly described species
Miliusa gokhalaei Ratheesh, Sujanapal, Anil Kumar & Sivadasan, from Kerala, India.

Thanks for sharing the paper…
its another new species with my illustration…!!

I was about to ask you a simple question? Who is this scientist Gokahle whose name is given for the species? Any further information……
Read the article carefully and found the answer which I am re writing here again.
“Eponymy : The specific epithet honors Padmashree Mr. A.M. Gokhalae (Rtd IAS Officer) Formr director of M. S. Swaminathan research foundation Chennai India. A great lover of plants and plant taxonomy; he prepared a detailed electronic database of more than 7000 angiosperm species.”
