Carl Jonas Pfeiffer
Carl Jonas Pfeiffer (7 February 1779 – 3 May 1836) was a German merchant, banker, and amateur malacologist. Early life and business ventures Pfeiffer, called Jonas as a child, was born in the Oberneustadt parsonage on Karlsplatz in Cassel, where his father, Johann Jakob Pfeiffer, was the preacher. Shortly after his birth, the family relocated to Marburg, where his father accepted a position as a professor in the Department of Theology at the university there. His mother died before he was 5 years old, but his father's second wife cared for all of their children, especially after Johann Jakob's early death in 1791. Pfeiffer attended the gymnasium of Marburg until the age of 14, at which point he relocated to Cassel to apprentice as a cloth merchant. At the completion of his apprenticeship, he spent time as a traveling salesman in Frankfurt am Main, but soon found himself back in Marburg, where, despite not attending the University, as had his father and brothers, he spe ...

Caucasotachea Vindobonensis
''Caucasotachea vindobonensis'' is a large species of air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial molluscs, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod in the family Helicidae. The scientific name is derived from the Celtic settlement Vindobona, now known as Vienna, the capital of Austria. This species was formerly assigned to the genus ''Cepaea''. However, DNA sequences revealed that this species is not closely related to ''Cepaea'', but belongs instead to the genus ''Caucasotachea''. Description The right-hand coiled, globular shell of ''C. vindobonensis'' is 17–21 mm high and 20–25 mm broad with 5.5–6 whorls. In adults, the Gastropod_shell#Parts_of_the_shell, umbilicus is completely covered. The Gastropod_shell#Parts_of_the_shell, lip is brown at its inner end becoming pale towards the Gastropod_shell#Parts_of_the_shell, suture; this distinguishes it from the conchological similar ''Cepaea hortensis'' (usually pure white lip) and ''Cepaea nemoralis'' (usually a dark brown li ...

Caesar Rudolf Boettger
Caesar Rudolf Boettger (20 May 1888 – 8 September 1976) was a German zoologist born in Frankfurt am Main. He specialized in malacology, particularly studying the land snails and slugs. In 1912 he obtained his PhD from the University of Bonn, and in 1914 embarked on a scientific expedition to Africa and the Orient. During World War I, he was stationed in France and Turkey. In 1932 he became a private lecturer at the University of Berlin, where in 1938 he was appointed professor of zoology. In 1947 he became a professor of zoology at Braunschweig University of Technology, where he established a museum of natural history. After retirement in 1956, he undertook five research trips to North America (including Mexico and Hawaii). In 1965 he was visiting curator at the University of Michigan and in 1967/68 took part in a research project of the Naval Medical Field Research Laboratory in North Carolina. Boettger has over a dozen species named after him, as well as a gastrop ...
