Possible definitions for fabricius


Fabricius
Danish entomologist. He studied at Uppsala Univ. with C. Linnaeus, and from 1775 taught not only natural history but also economics and finance at the Univ. of Kiel. He advanced theories progressive for his time, particularly the view that new species and varieties could arise through hybridization and by environmental influence on anatomical structure and function. His taxonomic research was based on insect mouthparts rather than their wings.
