James Charles Dale (1792 – 6 February 1872) was a wealthy English naturalist who devoted almost all of his adult life to entomology. James Dale was the son of wealthy landowners. He received his education at Cambridge University receiving his MA in 1818. He was a friend of James Francis Stephens, frequently mentioned in that author's ''Illustrations of British Entomology'' and of John Curtis who refers to him frequently in his ''British Entomology''. Another close friend was the Irish entomologist Alexander Henry Haliday. The references are mainly to Coleoptera though Dale worked on all Orders. His first note, on Lepidoptera was published, in the ''Magazine of Natural History'' in 1830. This was followed by some 83 further notes and articles covering a wide range of topics. He was elected a member of the first Entomological Society of London on 25 June 1822. He was appointed High Sheriff of Dorset for 1843. ==Works== Partial list *1834- The authorship of many insects described by Dale in ''British Entomology'' is often given to Curtis, however it is clearly stated by Curtis that the authorship is Dale's and from "Dale MSS" *1834 A List of the more rare of the Species of Insects found on Parley Heath, on the Borders of Hampshire Loudon's ''Magazine of Natural History''. *1841 ''Beris Morrisii'' of Curtis's Guide ''Entomologist''. 1(1840-1842): 175- 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Charles Dale」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
