Annotation: as "Impatiens Sultani"; spelling of epithet sometimes "corrected" to "sultanii," but ICN Art. 60.8 (Shenzhen Code) only applies to the formation of specific and infraspecific epithets derived from unlatinized personal names; according to the protologue, I. sultani was named in honor of “the Sultan of Zanzibar,” i.e., Barghash bin Said (who ruled from 1870–1888); since “sultani” is derived from Barghash's title, not his name, the original spelling "sultani" is correct
