Frank Morton Carpenter (1902-1994) received his PhD from Harvard University, and was curator of fossil insects at the Harvard Museum of Comparative Zoology for 60 years. He studied the Permian fossil insects of Elmo, Kansas, and compared the North American fossil insect fauna with Paleozoic taxa known from elsewhere in the world. A careful and methodical worker, he used venation and mouthparts to determine the relationships of fossil taxa, and was author of the ''Treatise'' volume on Insects. He reduced the number of extinct insect orders then described from about fifty to nine. Entomologists David Grimaldi and Michael S. Engel consider him "the most influential paleoentomologist of his generation" (Grimaldi and Engel 2005 p. 143). He has been memorialized frequently with patronyms, including the scorpionfly ''Bittacus carpenteri'' Cheng, 1957,〔F. Y. Cheng. 1957. Revision of the Chinese Mecoptera. ''Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zoology'' 116(1): 1-118; 113: "I take the liberty to name the species in honor of Professor F. M. Carpenter, who has allowed me to describe the species."〕 the fossil parasitic wasp ''Carpenteriana tumida'' Yoshimoto, 1975,〔Carl M. Yoshimoto. 1975. Cretaceous Chalcidoid Fossils from Canadian Amber. ''Canadian Entomologist'' 107(5): 499-528; 510: "Named after the American palaeoentomologist Frank Carpenter (1902-1994), who worked at the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Cambridge, Massachusetts" per: John T. Huber. 2005. The gender and derivation of genus-group names in Mymaridae and Mymarommatidae (Hymenoptera). ''Acta Soc. Zool. Bohem.'' 69: 167-183; p. 169.〕 the fossil snakefly ''Fibla carpenteri'' Engel, 1995,〔M. S. Engel. 1995. A new fossil snake-fly species from Baltic amber (Raphidioptera: Inocelliidae). ''Psyche'' 102: 187-193. "This species is named in honor of the late Dr. Frank M. Carpenter (1902-1994), world's authority on fossil insects. Dr. Carpenter had a particular interest in the Raphidioptera (both recent and fossil) and it is only fitting that one should bear his name."〕 the fossil ant ''Protrechina carpenteri'' Wilson, 1985,〔Edward O. Wilson. 1985. Ants from the Cretaceous and Eocene amber of North America. ''Psyche'' 92: 205-216. "The species is named for Frank M. Carpenter in recognition of his pioneering work on the fossil ants of North America."〕 and the caddisfly ''Rhyacophila carpenteri'' Milne, 1936.〔L. J. Milne. 1936. ''Studies in North American Trichoptera. Part 3.'' Cambridge, Mass.: privately published. 128 pages.〕 ==Cited Works==
