The author of the species name Agave wercklei is Carlos Wercklé who validly published this name in 1907, not Frédéric Albert Constantin Weber as has been indicated in various botanical works. As Wercklé attributed the name to Weber, the full citation, retaining historical information linked to this name, is A. wercklei F. A. C. Weber ex Wercklé.
