The name should have been Brunella from Brunelle/Braunelle = to become brown but Linné  misspelt it!

Oh, so he (Bock) did a mistake in 1552 and Carl von Linné corrcted it later! ??? Because he (Linné) didn't catch a cold and he didn't die of it either? ??? ???
He (Carl) is  my 11th cousin 6 times removed if you would like to know ;D ; :o

 Exactly! You see how dangerous a cold can be?  ;D ;) ;)   you are lucky to be related to Linné and not Boch..... you would never manage to walk to nearly 6000m up mountains otherwise!  :o ;D

Dangerous for the plants? They get misnamed for several years and nobody care :'(

Who knows, maybe I am related to Bock too - I didn't find him :-\   and everyone can be related! Haven't you discovered the revelation of geni.com ::) I have found more than 100.000 relatives that I didn't know of ???
