Etymology: This genus is named in honour of the late Dr Selwyn L. Everist, a former Director of the Queensland Herbarium (1954-1976), who gave us the opportunity to work in our particular field of botanical interest and who supported and encouraged many a botanist during his directorship at BRI. Dr Gordon Guymer, current Chief Botanist at BRI, is thanked for suggesting this name.
