Autoren-Porträt von Henry Walter Bates
Henry Walter Bates (1825-1892) was an eminent English naturalist and explorer whose work has had a lasting impact on the fields of entomology and biogeography. Bates is best known for his expedition to the Amazon Basin, a daring journey he embarked upon alongside the famous naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace in 1848. His extensive research in the Amazon over a period of eleven years led to the publication of his most notable work, 'The Naturalist on the River Amazons', first published in 1863. In this seminal book, Bates provided vivid descriptions of the rich biodiversity he encountered, as well as insightful observations on the behavior and ecology of the species he studied. Furthermore, Bates contributed to the theory of mimicry in evolutionary biology, known as Batesian mimicry, through his observations on butterfly species. His work has been characterized by a meticulous attention to the interconnections between species and their environments, and his literary style often reflects his profound respect and awe for nature. Bates's expertise and pioneering research continue to be referenced and studied by naturalists and biologists, underscoring his important legacy in natural science literature.
