Etymology: This news species is named after my father Cees Gouda, who initiated and inspired me in my interest in Tillandsias in the first place nearly 50 years ago, but also collected and shared many plants in the past, which gave me the opportunity to study many wild collected plants from Bolivia, Peru and Ecuador that he shared with me and the Utrecht Botanic Gardens.
