  • Etymology: "Surprisingly, DNA sequence data showed D. benthamii subsp. humilis to comprise two cryptic species that are more closely related to other species than to D. benthamii... As they are unexpected and unlikely ‘twins’, we have named them after the actors who played an unlikely pair of twins in the eponymous Hollywood movie: Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito. We have named this species after Schwarzenegger because he is much more robust than his twin: ‘The embryo did split in two, but it didn't split equally. All the purity and strength went into Julius [Schwarzenegger’s character]’. This difference between the actors parallels the growth habit difference between the two Daviesia species. We also wish to honour Arnold Schwarzenegger’s leadership (as governor of California) in pioneering the reduction of carbon emissions, and for advising the Australian government to do the same (Anonymous 2015 [i.e.The Guardian Australia accessed 31 July 2016])."
