RÖSEL VON ROSENHOF\'S COMPLETE WORKS ON INSECTS, including the much rarer posthumous work, completed by his daughter Katharina and her husband, artist and astronomer Christian Friedrich Carl Kleemann. Born to an aristocratic family in Austria, August Johann Rösel was raised by his uncle, noted animal painter Wilhelm Rösel von Rosenhof, from whom he inherited the \"von Rosenhof\" title. His observations in this work cover marine invertebrates as well as insects, and his detailed classifications made him a pioneer among European entomologists, influencing Carl Linnaeus, among others.
