Sažetak
Gjuro Pilar has been pronounced one of the most distinguished natural scientists of 19th century with good reason. His life was relatively short, but filled with enormous efforts invested into scientific, museological and social work. He worked in the period when modern geology was in its beginnings, and the situation in world geology was relatively unfavourable because explorati-
on of the field was not at the level for objective evaluation. He was a man of European education and culture, respected in international society and chosen in national (as a part of Austro-Hungarian Monarchy) and foreign expert associations from geology to botany, zoology and anthropology in France and Germany.
