Notă biografică
Douglas Dewar (1875-1957) was a British ornithologist, entomologist, and author who made significant contributions to the study of Indian birds and insects. He was born in London, England, and educated at Cambridge University. Dewar began his career as a civil servant in India, where he developed a keen interest in the country's wildlife. Dewar published many articles on natural history, including "The Book of Indian Birds" (1906), which is still considered a classic in the field. He also wrote extensively on butterflies, moths, and other insects, and his collection of insect specimens is now housed at the Natural History Museum in London. In addition to his scientific work, Dewar was an accomplished writer and journalist, contributing articles to various newspapers and magazines. He was a strong advocate for the conservation of wildlife, and his writings helped to raise public awareness of the need to protect India's natural resources. Dewar retired to England in 1927, where he continued to write and lecture on natural history until his death in 1957. His contributions to the study of Indian birds and insects remain highly regarded, and his legacy continues to inspire generations of naturalists and conservationists.
