Edusella Rufilabris
''Edusella'' is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. They mainly occur in Australia, with a single species occurring in New Caledonia. Taxonomy The genus ''Edusa'' was originally named by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat in 1836, in Dejean's ''Catalogue of Coleoptera''. However, the name ''Edusa'' is usually attributed to Félicien Chapuis, who described the genus in 1874 and divided it into three subgenera: ''Edusa'', ''Edusella'', and ''Edusina''. These divisions of the genus are not used by later authors. ''Edusa'' Chapuis, 1874 was then found to be preoccupied by multiple older animal genera of the same name (by Gistel, 1848 in Tunicata and Albers, 1860 in Gastropoda), so it was renamed to ''Edusia'' by Édouard Lefèvre in 1885. However, the name ''Edusa'' continued to be used for these beetles by some authors regardless. Later, the name ''Edusella'', one of the subgenera created by Chapuis, was chosen as the name of the genus instead of either ''Edusa' ...

He specialised in Coleoptera Beetles are insects that form the order Coleoptera (), in the superorder Endopterygota. Their front pair of wings are hardened into wing-cases, elytra, distinguishing them from most other insects. The Coleoptera, with about 400,000 describ ... and finished the text of ''Genera des coléoptères'' by Théodore Lacordaire (1801—1870) when Lacordaire died. He wrote: *1874.

Thomas Blackburn (entomologist)
Thomas Blackburn (16 March 1844 – 28 May 1912) was an English-born Australian priest and entomologist who specialized in the study of beetles. Born near Liverpool, England, Blackburn became interested in entomology in his youth. At the age of 18, with his brother, he began publishing and editing the periodical ''The Weekly Entomologist''; this ceased publication two years later, after which he became one of the editors of the newly founded ''Entomologist's Monthly Magazine''. In 1866, he entered the University of London, from which he received a B.A. degree in 1868. Ordained a priest of the Church of England in 1870, he served for six years as a parish priest at Greenhithe, Kent. In 1876, Blackburn was transferred to the Hawaiian Islands, where he served as senior priest and chaplain to the bishop of the Church of Hawaii in Honolulu. During his time there, he collected insects extensively on Oahu and also made brief collecting journeys to other islands of the archipelago. "The ...

Transactions Of The Entomological Society Of London
The Royal Entomological Society is devoted to the study of insects. Its aims are to disseminate information about insects and improving communication between entomologists. The society was founded in 1833 as the Entomological Society of London. It had many antecedents beginning as the Society of Entomologists of London. History The foundation of the society began with a meeting of "gentlemen and friends of entomological science", held on 3 May 1833 in the British Museum convened by Nicholas Aylward Vigors with the presidency of John George Children. Those present were the Reverend Frederick William Hope, Cardale Babington, William Yarrell, John Edward Gray, James Francis Stephens, Thomas Horsfield, George Thomas Rudd and George Robert Gray. Letters of Adrian Hardy Haworth, George Bennett and John Curtis were read where they expressed their regrets to be unable to attend the meeting. They decided that a society should be created for the promotion of the science of entomo ...

Hamlet Clark
Hamlet Clark (30 March 182310 June 1867) was an English clergyman and entomologist specialising in Coleoptera, especially water beetles and leaf beetles. Hamlet Clark was born in Navenby, Lincolnshire on 30 March 1823. He was the eldest son of Rev. Henry Clark of Harmston, Lincolnshire. His first schooling was at the Beverly Grammar School after which he studied with the Rev. Scott who ignited his interest in natural history. Hamlet was a sickly child and avoided strenuous activities. He enrolled at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge and studied under the coleopterist Thomas Vernon Wollaston (Jesus College, Cambridge). Cambridge's tuition in natural history at that time was not of a high standard, but Clark devised his own reading list and purchased specimens from local residents. His interests during that period were birds, spiders, and Lepidoptera. Later on he devoted his time to Coleoptera, in particular the water and leaf beetles. Clark published his first article 'Captures ...
