Not British being born in Altona, but included here because he spent all his professional life in this country after first arriving in Manchester with the Halle orchestra at the age of twenty one. Jacoby's interest in music - he subsequently became involved with the Royal Italian Opera and was a much respected violin tutor - ran parallel with his career in entomology. He married in 1869.

Known as 'Pinkie'. Well known African Lepidopterist who also collected beetles. Born in England the son of Brig. General H.K.Jackson and educated at Wellington College and Harper Adams Agricultural College, Shropshire, before travelling to Kenya in 1923.

Elgon, Jackson joined the O.C.T.U. at the outbreak of war, subsequently reaching the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.

Student at Bangor University who recorded beetles in the Bangor area between 1968 and 1977. Peter Hodge published a note on the Beetles-British Isles web site (21 November 2003) concerning some photocopies from a diary sent to him by Jonathan Cooter in the early 1980s which he believed may have been that of L.G.Cox.

Lived for most of her life in Scotland and for many years in St. Andrews. She appears to have been attracted to entomology and particularly to the Coleoptera in her early twenties, and without any formal training, rapidly established a considerable reputation for her research. She published a large number of papers beginning with several on Sitona, eg. 'Bionomics of weevils of the genus Sitones injurious to leguminous crops in Britain' in Ann. appl. Biol., 7, 1921, pp.269-298. Other papers on this group dealt with the genetics of flight and flightlessness.

Author of the well known Instructions for Collecting, Rearing and Preserving British and Foreign Insects..., 1827, 1839, 1843, 1849, and also of the Entomologists Guide, 1824, 1839. The 1827 edition of the Instructions includes a list of one hundred or so Coleoptera as new to the British list, thus pre-dating their appearance in Stephens (1828 and later). Ingall's shorter publications included one concerning beetles 'Notes upon the economy of Brachinus crepitans and Sirex duplex' in Proc.ESL., 1839, p.82.
