While perusing an old encyclopaedia to
learn about "cicadas" ( here they are now singing by the
hundreds: it is Spring in Brazil ) I found out about Chapman
( mentioned in Godunov- Cherdyntsev's recollections on "Father's
Butterflies"):
Frank Milcher Chapman [ ( 1864-1945),US
Ornithologist who did pioneer work in popularizing bird study,
etc...]
No entomologist Chapman.
Following DN's Commentaries to the sentence,
on page 208, "(as did Chapman and...)", I reached note
54: "VN had not yet invented a co-author"
.
Well!
Searching the Index
I found in "C" Chapman's Green Hairstreak, 218, leading to a
sentence about Chapman's "pathological specimen of
avis" (i.e: ornithology)
There was no other entry for the
intriguing Chapman on page 208.
