While perusing an old encyclopaedia to learn about "cicadas" ( here they are now singing by the hundreds: it is Spring in Brazil ) I found out about Chapman ( mentioned in Godunov- Cherdyntsev's recollections on "Father's Butterflies"):
Frank Milcher Chapman [ ( 1864-1945),US Ornithologist who did pioneer work in popularizing bird study, etc...]
No entomologist Chapman.
Following DN's Commentaries to the sentence, on page 208, "(as did Chapman and...)", I reached note 54: "VN had not yet invented a co-author" .
Well!
Searching the Index I found in "C" Chapman's Green Hairstreak, 218, leading to a sentence about Chapman's "pathological specimen of avis" (i.e: ornithology)
There was no other entry for the intriguing Chapman on page 208.
