Heinrich Ernst Karl Jordan (7 December 1861 – 12 January 1959) was a German entomologist. Jordan was born in Hanover and educated at Göttingen University. In 1893 he began work at the Walter Rothschild's Museum at Tring, specialising in Coleoptera, Lepidoptera and Siphonaptera. Jordan published over 400 papers, many jointly with Charles and Walter Rothschild and described 2,575 new species himself, with an additional 851 in collaboration with the Rothschilds. Jordan initiated and founded the first International Entomological Congress, held in 1910. He was a Fellow of the Royal Society, and President of the Entomological Society of London from 1929 to 1930. ==References== *Miriam Rothschild - ''Dear Lord Rothschild'' ISBN 0-09-153740-1 *Kristin Johnson - 2012 ''Ordering Life: Karl Jordan and the Naturalist Tradition'' - Johns Hopkins University Press, ISBN 1421406004, ISBN 978-1421406008 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Karl Jordan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
