German entomologist (1855-1939) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hermann Julius Kolbe (2 June 1855, Halle, Province of Westphalia – 26 November 1939) was a German entomologist from Halle, Westphalia. He was curator at the Berlin Zoological Museum from 1890 until 1921 specialising in Coleoptera, Psocoptera and Neuroptera. He died in Berlin-Lichterfelde.
Kolbe was born in Halle and studied at the University of Munster but did not complete due to problems with health and family. He worked as a teacher in Oeding from 1878 to 1882 and then joined the entomology department of the Zoologisches Museum at Berlin and became a curator of Coleoptera and Neuroptera in 1921. One of his interests was in the Scarabaeidae.[1]
