Remarks
Etymology: The chosen generic epithet honors Jan Swatopluk Presl (1791–1849), a Czech taxonomist who was the first to correctly split up the polymorphic Capparis s.l. into segregated natural genera, and his brother Karl Boriwog Presl (1794–1852), the author of Reliquiae Haenkeanae (1830). doi:10.3100/025.016.0110
