Nikolaus Poda Von Neuhaus

Nikolaus Poda von Neuhaus (4 October 1723 – 29 April 1798) was an Austrian entomologist born in Vienna.

Von Neuhaus was the author of Insecta Musei Graecensis (1761), the first purely entomological work to follow the binomial nomenclature of Carolus Linnaeus.

Famous quotes containing the word von:

    Denotation by means of sounds and markings is a remarkable abstraction. Three letters designate God for me; several lines a million things. How easy becomes the manipulation of the universe here, how evident the concentration of the intellectual world! Language is the dynamics of the spiritual realm. One word of command moves armies; the word liberty entire nations.
    Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
