<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Hi,<br><br></div> E.R. Wagner is almost certainly Emilio Roger Wagner, who was an Argentinian archaeologist, who also had a passion for entomology. He was active in that period and died in 1949. Here is a wiki on him and his brother Duncan. <br><br><a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__es.wikipedia.org_wiki_Emilio-5Fy-5FDuncan-5FWagner&d=AwMFaQ&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=CLFZJ3fvGSmDp7xK1dNZfh6uGV_h-8NVlo3fXNoRNzI&m=4VUJyfc-BwqeQic36EN6cQRo8n_uBdsthvYkYEnfGb4&s=OB2oM_i6_mwuWi6WWdRGqKmDyZu-E_C8WL2ug_cbCvw&e=">https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emilio_y_Duncan_Wagner</a><br><br></div>Cheers,<br></div>Eli Wyman<br><div><div><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Dec 14, 2015 at 2:10 PM, Christopher Kemp <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cjkemp@gmail.com" target="_blank">cjkemp@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi Friends,<br><br></div>I'm looking at a paper about a beautiful species of large fly just described: <i>Gauromydas papavero</i>. A great species with a long shelf life. It was first collected in Argentina in 1930-something by a collector called E.R. Wagner. I've searched for him and he's collected an awful lot of stuff, 1903, 1911, active for decades in South America. But I don't have any biographical information at all. Don't know what E or R stand for, or where he was from, or when he died. Anything, folks?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br></font></span></div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">--ck<br clear="all"><div><div><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><br><span></span></div></div></div>
