Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

English naturalist Mark Catesby (1683-1749) is best known for his work The Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahamas, in which he wrote about and illustrated the local flora and fauna. Over the course of his journeys across America, he documented uncountable varieties of animal and plant life that were previously unknown to Europeans. Many plants and animals have since been named after Catesby, including the American Bullfrog, Rana catesbeiana.
