  • Etymology: "We've talked and corresponded intermittently about daisies for some years and it is with pleasure that I name this species after Mrs Judy Barker, editor of Australian brachyscomes (Salkin et al. 1995), a co-author of Australian Daisies for Gardens and Floral Art and Everlasting Daisies of Australia, and at various stages a leader of the Australian Daisy Study Group (a specialist group - currently on hold - within the Australian Native Plants Society) and editor of its newsletter."
