THE SENIANS AND SOME OTHER NATURALISTS INVESTIGATORS ON THE TERRITORY OF SENJ AND MT. VELEBIT
BOGOMIR MILOŠEVIĆ
Sažetak
While investigating the history of entomology in Croatia, the author came to rather interesting pieces of information about close links of Senj and naturalists entomologists. The 20th c. progress in the technology and technique has to a great deal influenced development of the entomology but it is presumed that the emotional predisposition towards the insects will certainly play an important role in the future as well. The author here elaborates particulars about the people born at Senj or those who used to gain knowledge about nature at Senj or have simply found themselves there and have contributed the improvement of the entomology. Those were Narcis Damin (1845-1905), August Langhoffer (1861-1940), Franjo Dobiaš (1862-1914), Eugen Dobiaš, Krunoslav Babić (1875-1953), Željko Kovačević (1883-1984), Slobodan Glumac (1930-1998) and Narcis Mršić (1951-1997). The respective references have been mentioned for all of them and for some entomologists pointed at the untrue or unreliable data. Likewise, the author is having under preparation some more thorough works about Narcis Damin and Franjo Dobiaš. The author further points at the investigations carried out by Zdravko Lorković (1900-1998) and numerous other local and foreign investigators of the entomofauna of Mt.Velebit. While wondering what was it that made all those investigators do their investigations on insects, the author finds an answer in one lyric of the Senian poet Silvije Strahimir Kranjčević who simply used to enjoy in watching the nature. By investigating the world of insects the investigator will discover the infinite diversity and beauty of the forms, complexity of their relations and numerous provocative unknownness.
