Would it be correct to list him among these people, or is there some difference between the zoologists listed here and the type of zoologist he was? Also, his wife Terry might be listed here as well. 86.45.103.251 ( talk) 16:28, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
I figure this is as good a place as any to post mysteries as I find them. Can we find these people?

There seem to be two Tytlers, one listed here who worked on reptiles in the 1850s, and another one (might be Sir H.C. Tytler if Google did not mislead me) working on butterflies in the 1910s. Is the same abbreviation used for both? andy 13:13, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
These are not author abbreviations, so could you clarify on the article page what exactly it is about? These are surnames or family names. Author abbreviations are what are done in botany, and because the ICZN explicitly states that surnames or family names should not be abbreviated, having an article titled "list of zoologists by author abbreviation" which isn't such a list, is confusing. Please just add some sort of note explaining this is a list of surnames, with the given name abbreviated or anything that makes it clear what it is. Also, you link to binomial nomenclature without any explanation, and, again, as this has nothing to do ICZN, it's a confusing link. KP Botany 19:49, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
It's nice that somebody has compiled this information, but who compiled it and what is the official source for this information? There seems to be overlap between this list and a list in wikispecies http://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Catalog:Taxon_Authorities/A. The wikispecies list seems to combine botanists and zoologists and it seems to have some names that don't appear in either the botanist or zoologist list in wikipedia. The wikispecies catalog links back to wikipedia but wikipedia doesn't seem to link to wikispecies. It might be nice if there were some words and links that explained what is the more "official list" or maybe even better the lists should be combined. As an aside, I thought that a list might exist like this but I had a hard time finding it. Davefoc ( talk) 01:34, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
There are no author abbreviations in the list, the title is incorrect.-- FranciscoWelterSchultes ( talk) 23:56, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
I think this article should be moved to List of authors of names published under the ICZN or some such. That's the only purpose of the article--otherwise it's just a random list of zoologists, and should be deleted.
Referencing the article is problematic; unlike List of botanists by author abbreviation, where there is a single reference, it would seem that each entry in this list needs a separate reference. I'll leave it to others to figure out how that would work in practice.-- Curtis Clark ( talk) 16:06, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
Dear Editors!
I noticed that in enwiki articles (and therefore in other Wikipedias as well) in some of the infoboxes of animals not the proper zoologist's name is shown.
For example in the article List of authors of names published under the ICZN.
Salomon Müller (1804–1864) is shown as "S. Müller", while Johannes Peter Müller (1801–1858) is simply "Müller". However, in many articles the " Müller" link points to "Salomon Müller".
I think that the link "Müller" should refer to "Salomon Müller". There are two examples for it: Exilisciurus; Celebes Dwarf Squirrel.
The following zoologists can be found in their list:

Need a full name for this guy, author of Cebus albifrons trinitatis Pusch 1942. I think it's A. von Pusch, but I don't know if this is correct, nor the full name. - UtherSRG (talk) 02:02, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
