This became the longest and greatest of all Beck ’ s expeditions and, as with the " Academy " expeditions, he was joined by many other accomplished biologists with complementary skills, including E. H. Quayle, J. G. Correia, Dr F. P. Drowne, Hannibal Hamlin, Guy Richards, Ernst Mayr, E. H. Bryan Jr., and others.

One letter from the Harvard biologist Ernst Mayr wrote that Beebe's work had been an inspiration to his own, particularly A Monograph of the Pheasants and Beebe's books about jungle wildlife.

Harvard biologist Ernst Mayr has sharply criticized Horowitz for wasting the resources of the university and the efforts of graduate students on such an endeavour.

This exposure to evolutionary theory led him to do graduate work with Ernst Mayr at Harvard from 1968 to 1972.

" He entered the University of Greifswald in 1923 and, according to Mayr himself, " took the medical curriculum ( to satisfy a family tradition ).

Mayr completed his doctorate in ornithology at the University of Berlin under Dr. Carl Zimmer, who was a full professor ( Ordentlicher Professor ), on June 24, 1926 at the age of 21.

Ernst W. Mayr, one of the 20th century's most influential evolutional biologists, studied at the University of Greifswald.

Raimund Schelcher ( 1891 – 1979 ) of the club then suggested that Mayr visit his classmate Erwin Stresemann on his way to Greifswald, where Mayr was to begin his medical studies.

Mayr emphasized the importance of allopatric speciation, where geographically isolated sub-populations diverge so far that reproductive isolation occurs.

In New Guinea, Mayr collected several thousand bird skins ( he named 26 new bird species during his lifetime ) and, in the process also named 38 new orchid species.

Mayr also greatly influenced the American ornithologist Margaret Morse Nice.

In a similar fashion, Mayr was also quite critical of molecular evolutionary studies such as those of Carl Woese.

Mayr equation also includes SN2 reactions

Mayr also introduced the biological species concept that defined a species as a group of interbreeding or potentially interbreeding populations that were reproductively isolated from all other populations.

* Falco peregrinus nesiotes, described by Mayr in 1941, is found in Fiji and probably also Vanuatu and New Caledonia.

Ernst Mayr, George Gaylord Simpson and G. Ledyard Stebbins were also important discipline-builders during the modern synthesis, in the fields of systematics, paleontology and botany, respectively.

Johann ( es ) Simon Mayr ( also spelled Majer, Mayer, Maier ), also known in Italian as Giovanni Simone Mayr or Simone Mayr ( 14 June 1763 – 2 December 1845 ) was a German composer.

It enabled him to study at the British Museum, at the Berlin Zoological Museum under Erwin Stresemann and also at the American Museum of Natural History under Ernst Mayr.

Gould also specifically pointed out an error in the use of the term " polyploidy "; stated that Johnson incorrectly refers to Otto Schindewolf as a saltationist, " attacks " outdated statements of Simpson and Mayr ; fails to point out that Henry Fairfield Osborn corrected his own mistake regarding Nebraska Man ; and stated that Johnson overlooks " self-organizing properties of molecules and other physical systems " that, in Gould's opinion, makes the self-assembly of RNA or DNA plausible.

His work in this area would influence Ernst Mayr, who was also an assistant at the museum from 1927 – 1930, and would contribute to the development of the modern evolutionary synthesis.

His Leonor ( 1798 ) forms the basis for the libretto which Ludwig van Beethoven used for the opera Fidelio ; it was also set by Pierre Gaveaux as Léonore, ou L ’ amour conjugal, by Simon Mayr as L ' amor coniugale, and by Ferdinando Paer as Leonora.

At the International Zoological Congress at Budapest in 1927, Mayr was introduced by Stresemann to banker and naturalist Walter Rothschild, who asked him to undertake an expedition to New Guinea on behalf of himself and the American Museum of Natural History in New York.

After Mayr was appointed at the American Museum of Natural History, he influenced American ornithological research by mentoring young birdwatchers.

From 1921 onwards he was in charge of the bird department of the Berlin Zoological Museum, and encouraged a number of young German scientists, including Ernst Mayr and Bernhard Rensch.

The science that tries to reconstruct phylogenetic trees and thus discover clades is called phylogenetics or cladistics, the latter term being derived from " clade " by Ernst Mayr ( 1965 ).

Mayr is sometimes credited with inventing modern philosophy of biology, particularly the part related to evolutionary biology, which he distinguished from physics due to its introduction of ( natural ) history into science.

As a result, apart from Dobzhansky, Bernhard Rensch and Ernst Mayr, very few neo-Darwinian writers used the term, preferring instead to talk of evolution as changes in allele frequencies without mention of the level of the changes ( above species level or below ).

Punctuated equilibrium differs from Mayr's hypothesis mainly in that Eldredge and Gould placed considerably greater emphasis on stasis, whereas Mayr was generally concerned with explaining the morphological discontinuity ( or " sudden jumps ") found in the fossil record.

Darwin's theory of evolution is based on key facts and the inferences drawn from them, which biologist Ernst Mayr summarised as follows:

Nevertheless, Donizetti received some musical instruction from Simon Mayr, a German composer of internationally successful operas who had become maestro di cappella at Bergamo's principal church in 1802.

Biologist Ernst Mayr epitomizes the effect of such an essentialist character of Platonic forms in biology: " Flesh-and-blood rabbits may vary, but their variations are always to be seen as flawed deviation from the ideal essence of rabbit ".

Another Pandionidae claw fossil was recovered from Early Oligocene deposits in the Mainz basin, Germany, and was described in 2006 by Gerald Mayr.

Simon Marius ( Latinized from German Simon Mayr ) ( January 10, 1573 – December 26, 1624 ) was a German astronomer.

Distinguished biologists, such as Ernst Mayr and Manfred Eigen have seen these informational aspects as one of the emergent features of life as a process that distinguish life from anything else in the physical world, except, perhaps, man-made computers.

Its cover stories have ranged from examination of alleged UFOs in religious icons and theories of the likelihood of artificial intelligence, to tributes to luminaries such as Isaac Asimov and Ernst Mayr.

In Vienna, Schindler acquired experience in the firm of Hans Mayr and Theodore Mayer, working there from September 1911 to February 1914.

An in-depth mitochondrial DNA population analysis study stated: “ According to the fossil record, the Red Panda diverged from its common ancestor with bears about 40 million years ago ( Mayr 1986 ).

Gencer's repertoire consists of 72 roles including works from composers such as ; Monteverdi, Gluck, Mozart to neo-classical period ; from Cherubini, Spontini, Johann Simon Mayr and the romantic period to Puccini, Prokofiev, Britten, Poulenc, Menotti and Rocca ; from a lyric soprano varying to dramatic colorature.

This has led some biologists and philosophers ( for example, Ernst Mayr and David Hull ) to return to the strictly philosophical reflections of Charles Darwin to resolve some of the problems which confronted them when they tried to employ a philosophy of science derived from classical physics.
