Robert Leslie Usinger Collection on Carolus Linnaeus

Introduction

Robert Leslie Usinger (1912-1968), one of the world's outstanding entomologists and an expert on the ecology of insects, was a professor of entomology at the University of California during most of his career. He was the author of 150 scientific books and papers. As a hobby, Usinger collected the works of Carolus Linnaeus (see also Carl von Linné). This collection contains books by Carolus Linnaeus, the founder of systematic biology, on insects and other animals. The collection also includes works about Linneaus. Usinger was a fellow of the Linnaean Society of London, and his library of materials by Linnaeus is one of the most extensive of its kind in the world.

Special Collections is currently in the process of cataloging the texts in this collection; please check back at a later date for a more complete listing with call numbers. All books in the Usinger collections must be viewed in the Special Collections Reading Room.
