He studied zoology at the University of Pavia, graduating in 1900 with a thesis on Hymenoptera found in Lombardy.〔(Treccani.it ) Dizionario Biografico / Paolo Magretti〕 In 1883 he undertook a zoological expedition to eastern Sudan and Eritrea, in which he collected a number of Hymenoptera species new to science.〔(Paolo Magretti (1854-1913) ) @ Global Ant Project -- World Ant Taxonomists〕 In 1900, he returned to Eritrea, where he spent two months collecting more zoological specimens.〔 He donated his African collections to the zoological museums in Genoa and Milan.
