Invertebrate zoology:

history/developments (link to name pages of those who have wiki articles about them)
- Early Modern era:
  - Conrad Gesner's Historia Animalum (1551-1587)
    - information from older works; restating the work of Pliny and Aristotle; mixing of old knowledge with own observations^[1]
  - Invention of the microscope in 1599
    - Robert Hooke--working out of England/Royal Society
      - observation of insects (including some larval forms) and other invertebrates (i.e. ticks [Arachnids])
      - Micrographia (1665)^[2]
  - shift towards experimental efforts following efforts of Sir Frances Bacon
  - Jan Swammerdam--Dutch microscopist
    - worked disproving spontaneous generation
    - advancements in anatomy and physiology
      - in entomology: dissections of insects, observation of internal structures^[3]
    - classification of insects based on life histories^[4]
      - work toward proof that egg/larva/pupa/adult are same individual
    - support for 'modern' science over blind belief in the work of philosophers of Antiquity^[3]
- 1700s:
  - naming of species that were relevant to economic pursuits, such as farming (pests and pest control)
  - entomology changed greatly and rapidly^[5]--many zoologists/naturalists working with hexapods
  - parasitology/worms
    - Nicolas Andry de Boisregard--French physician^[5]
      - worms cause disease
      - worms do not spontaneously form in human/animal gut; must be some 'seed' that enters the body and which contains the worm in some form
        spontaneous generation still argued over
    - Antonio Vallisneri^[5]
      - insect reproduction--sawfly
      - parasitic worms--Ascaris and Neoascaris
        worms from eggs
  - Linnaeus
    - insects and intestinal worms in Systema Naturae (first edition published in 1735)^[5]
      - tenth edition as true starting point for modern classification scheme for animals^[6]
    - universal system of classification and binomial nomenclature
      - genus and species, but also higher levels of classification^[7]
      - study of/investigation into biological diversity^[6]
      - based on few characters; artificial system^[8]
      - description of named organisms^[7]
- 1800s
  - Charles Darwin and the theory of evolution by natural selection
    - informed by study of insects while abroad (both Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace)^[9]
    - many species of invertebrate collected while aboard the Beagle (lots of insects)
      - sexual dimorphism, geographic distribution, mimicry
    - immutability of species major hurdle in acceptance of theory^[10]
