Albert Schwartz (zoologist) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Albert Schwartz (zoologist)
Albert Schwartz (1923–1992) was a zoologist from the United States. He worked extensively with the herpetofauna of Florida and the West Indies, and later, with butterflies. He is dubbed as one of the "Kings of West Indian Anole Taxonomy". ==Career== Schwartz obtained his PhD from the University of Michigan in mammalogy in 1952. Already at that time, he had a keen interest on amphibians and reptiles, as well as on warmer climates.〔 Schwartz spent most of his professional working life at the Miami-Dade Community College;〔〔 he was also supported by a family trust, which he used to fund his own activities as well field expeditions by others. Starting 1954, he worked extensively in Cuba, and described numerous frogs〔 as well as three anole species from there.〔 After the revolution in Cuba, he shifted his attention to Hispaniola,〔 where he again described numerous frog species〔 and five anoles.〔 In the late 1970s, when Schwartz saw the number of new amphibians and reptiles he could describe from the West Indies diminishing, he shifted his attention to butterflies.〔
