| Summary: | In memory of Cesare Conci (Rovereto, April 26th, 1920 – Milano, May 11th, 2011) The biography and scientific activities of Prof. Cesare Conci are here summarized. Prof. Conci was the curator of invertebrate zoology of our museum from 1957 to 1964; then he became the Director of the same institution until 1981. He was primarily an entomologist, but he also had a very deep knowledge of natural sciences and contributed to the advancement of Italian speleology and biogeography. He was a skilful researcher both in the lab and in the field, and supported information sharing and collaboration as productive working strategies. Prof. Conci also promoted the scientific associationism that strongly contributed to the diffusion and progress of naturalistic knowledge in the second half of the 20th century. A list of taxa described by Prof. Conci, as well as one of taxa dedicated to him, and honouring his scientific work, are provided. Finally, all Conci’s publications are reported. |
