Abstract
Mariano La Gasca y Segura, known as Lagasca, named a southwestern North American plant Gutierrezia without recording who he was honoring. The association of Lagasca with Pedro Gutiérrez Bueno, a leading chemist and pharmacist in Madrid at the same time that LaGasca was director of the Royal Botanical Garden there, makes it likely that Gutiérrez Bueno was the intended honoree.
