This is my first post on here, so I hope I am doing this right, and that it is in the correct forum. I am wondering if anyone can tell me who is honored by the species name gilberti. This is for a homeschool project.
 
According to James Joblin it was Gilbert Nkwocha (fl. 1949) Nigerian collector and skinner for William Serle.
