Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Coenraad Jacob Temminck (31 March 1778-30 January 1858) was a Dutch aristocrat and zoologist. Temminck was the first director of the National Natural History Museum at Leiden from 1820 until his death. His Manuel d'ornithologie, ou Tableau systematique des oiseaux qui se trouvent en Europe (1815) was the standard work on European birds for many years. He inherited a large collection of bird specimens from his father, who was treasurer of the Dutch East India Company. In 1831, he was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. Temminck was also the author of Histoire naturelle g n rale des Pigeons et des Gallinac es (1813-1817), Nouveau Recueil de Planches colori es d'Oiseaux (1820-1839), and contributed to the mammalian sections of Philipp Franz von Siebold's Fauna japonica (1844-1850).
