The historical definition of race, before the development of evolutionary biology, was that of common lineage, a vague concept interchangeable with species, breed, cultural origin, or national character ("The whole race of mankind." – Shakespeare ; "From whence the race of Alban fathers come" – Dryden).
In biology, a race was defined as a recognisable group forming all or part of a monotypic or polytypic species.

 Triskelle - Song Lyrics: Botany Bay
Botany Bay has become the synonym for transportation, notwithstanding the fact that there has never been a penal colony in this bay.
The first penal colony in Australia was planned at Botany Bay, but the commander of the so-called First Fleet, Captain Phillip, held the bay unsuitable for a settlement.
Between 1791 and 1868 approximately 40,000 Irish men, women and children are transported to Australia, initially known as New South Wales.

The resulting tautonymy was corrected by using the specific epithet from the next available junior synonym for the same species, hence Radiola linoides (Roth 1788).
In Botany a tautonymy (identical generic and specific epithets) is not allowed, but in Zoology it is.

 Tilghman, Howard Biography
The term "Christian statesman" is so often applied to men who prostitute public office for private gain as almost to become a synonym of hypocrite; but that it may be applied to Tilghman A. Howard in its literal sense, those who read this sketch will see.
Although General Howard never attended an academy or a college, he was a very learned man. He was acquainted with the civil law, with theology, history, politics, geology, mineralogy, botany, philosophy, and the occult sciences.
Tilghman Ashurst Howard was born on the Saluda river, near Pickensviile, South Carolina, November 14, 1797.
