It is regarded as something of an honour to have a species of organism named after you. To have a genus named after you is even more of an honour because new genera are less often named than new species. However, an even greater honour is to have a family named after you because new families are rarely created. Valdés & Gosliner (1999) honoured Nelson Mandela by naming a genus and family of seaslug (Mollusca: Nudibranchia) after him. Mandelia mirocornata has only been recorded along the coast line of the Cape Peninsula.
It was released and traded under the name 'Kirstenbosch Gold' until 1996 when the National Biodiversity Institute (NBI) was granted permission to re-name it in honour of Nelson Mandela. It is a rare and spectacular yellow-flowering strelitzia.
