	Carolus Linnaeus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Linnaeus was also a pioneer in defining the now discredited concept of "race" as applied to humans.
		Linnaeus was one of the founders of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
		Linnaeus is the only botanist currently referred to by a single initial: L. (Previously, the abbreviation assigned was Linn.) In botany, the scientific authority for a botanical name is listed immediately after the name.

		Carl Linnaeus was born at Stenbrohult, in the province of Smalandia in southern Sweden.
		During this time Linnaeus became convinced that in the stamens and pistils of flowers lay the basis for the classification of plants, and he wrote a short work on the subject that earned him the position of adjunct professor.
		Linnaeus named taxa in ways that personally struck him as common-sensical; for example, human beings are Homo sapiens (see sapience), but he also described a second human species, Homo troglodytes ("cave-dwelling man", by which he meant the chimpanzee currently most often placed in a different genus as Pan troglodytes).

	Carolus Linnaeus - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		In the academic world, Latin was the language of choice, so when Linnaeus' father went to the University of Lund, he coined himself a Latin surname: Linnaeus, referring to a large linden tree[1]on the family property Linnagård ('Linn' being a now obsolete Swedish variant of 'Lind'; the linden tree).
		Linnaeus was also a pioneer in defining the concept of "race".
		Linnaeus is the only botanist currently referred to by a single initial: L. (Previously, the abbreviation assigned was Linn.) In botany, the names, abbreviated, of the botanists who first describe and codify a species follow immediately after the scientific name.

	Carolus_Linnaeus
		Carl Linnaeus was born at a farm called Råshult in Älmhult Municipality, the province of Småland in southern Sweden.
		His father, born Nils Ingemarsson, had adopted the Latin surname Linnaeus as more appropriate for a clergyman on his matriculation at Lund University; the name deriving from the lime [2] tree after which the family farm, Linnagård, took its name.
		Although the groupings themselves have been significantly changed since Linnaeus' conception, as well as the principles behind them, he is credited with establishing the idea of a hierarchical structure of classification which is based upon observable characteristics.

		Carolus Linnaeus (or Carl von Linné) (May 23, 1707-January 10, 1778) was a Swedish scientist who laid the foundations for the modern scheme of taxonomy.
		During this time Linnaeus became convinced that in the stamens and pistils[?] of flowers lay the basis for the classification of plants, and he wrote a short work on the subject that earned him the postion of adjunct professor.
		Linnaeus named taxa in ways that personally struck him as common-sensical; for example, human beings are Homo sapiens "wise man", but he also described a second human species, Homo troglodytes[?] (or Homo nocturnus - "cave-dwelling man" or "nocturnal man"), by which he seems to have meant the only-recently described chimpanzee).

		Linnaeus was the first to describe human beings as Homo sapiens (man+wise), and although he criticized any idea that suggested "evolution," he did argue that humans and chimpanzees shared a genus: Homo troglodytes (man+cave dweller).
		The influence of Linnaeus was fostered by the number and influence of the students he sent around the globe.

	Carl Linnaeus
		Linnaeus went to the Netherlands in 1735, promptly finished his medical degree at the University of Harderwijk, and then enrolled in the University of Leiden for further studies.
		Linnaeus continued to revise his Systema Naturae, which grew from a slim pamphlet to a multivolume work, as his concepts were modified and as more and more plant and animal specimens were sent to him from every corner of the globe.
		Although Linnaeus was not the first to use binomials, he was the first to use them consistently, and for this reason, Latin names that naturalists used before Linnaeus are not usually considered valid under the rules of nomenclature.

	Carolus Linnaeus
		In 1733 Linnaeus was engaged at Uppsala in teaching the methods of assaying ores, but was prevented from delivering lectures on botany for academic reasons.
		At the age of sixty his memory began to fail; an apoplectic attack in 1774 greatly weakened him; two years after he lost the use of his right side; and he died on the 10th of January 1778 at Uppsala, in the cathedral of which he was buried.
		When he appeared upon the scene, new plants and animals were in course of daily discovery in increasing numbers, due to the increase of trading facilities; he devised schemes of arrangement by which these acquisitions might be sorted provisionally, until their natural affinities should have become clearer.

		It should also be mentioned that none of the authors, cited in the works of Linnaeus have ever been doubted as to the correctness of their descriptions.
		The publication by Savage, in Herbertia 1937, of a summary of "A manuscript by the Younger Linnaeus dealing with Certain Genera now included in the Amaryllidaceae," roughly dated 1782-83, and that remained unpublished until the recent summary appeared, throws some light on this subject.
		This manuscript of the Younger Linnaeus was authority for certain specific diagnoses in the first edition of Hortus Kewensis, 1789, including A.

	Cat - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The reasoning behind it is that younger cats are more adaptable to the amputation, and the fact that distal phalanges in the cat at this age are still cartilaginous may make the operation somewhat less painful.
		The wild cat, ancestor of the domestic cat, is believed to have evolved in a desert climate, as evident in the behavior common to both the domestic and wild forms.
		The domestic cat was named Felis catus by Carolus Linnaeus in his Systema Naturae of 1758.

	Linnaeus Link - Natural History Museum
		The Linnaeus Collection in the NHM General Library is organized by Soulsby number but the General Library also has Linnaean items not in the main Linnaeus Collection, e.g., analyticals of serial articles held at the parent journal location.
		The comprehensive nature and size of the NHM Linnaeus Collection is due to the enthusiasm and generosity of Basil H. Soulsby, who was in charge of the Library at The Natural History Museum from 1920 to 1930 and continued the work after his retirement.
		There is one letter from Carolus Linnaeus, in Latin, from Amsterdam to Philip Miller of 20 June 1737 containing an account of the Astrum laponum or gadfly of Lapland, with some previous notices of the country.

		Actually, YOU don't get to name it unless you discover a new species because most living things are already named, thanks to a smart Swede named Carolus Linnaeus who lived in the 18th century and was very upset that there were so many nameless living things around him.
		Anyway, Latin names were given to living things because Latin was the secret language of priests and because Linnaeus figured that every school child would do nothing but study Latin all day long.
		And the younger generation is picking up Latin again and talks only about Tyrannosaurus rex.

		Their primary preoccupation was identifying, dissecting, and cataloging the many biological specimens of living and extinct species being sent to the museum from around the world.
		This discipline of classification, also known as taxonomy, had been essentially founded a century before, when the Swede Carolus Linnaeus roughed out the classification hierarchy of kingdom, class, order, genus, and species (phylum and family were added later) that has served so well and flexibly ever since.
		Linnaeus also invented binomial nomenclature, by which each species is known by its genus and species names (Homo sapiens, Falco peregrinus).
