Ross Bell American entomologist

Ross Taylor Bell was an American entomologist with particular interest in the invertebrate natural history of Vermont, United States, and carabid beetles. Together with his wife, Joyce Bell, his work at the University of Vermont was largely taxonomic, where they described more than 75% of the rhysodine species known to science. Ross also wrote a number of seminal papers in his chosen field.

Philip Jackson Darlington, Jr. was an American entomologist, field naturalist, biogeographer, museum curator, and zoology professor. He was legendary for his collecting ability and his toughness and determination on field expeditions.
