Jacob Christian Schäffer was a prominent 18th-century German Lutheran theologian and scientist, recognized for his significant contributions to botany, mycology, entomology, and ornithology. He became passionate about entomology after studying a caterpillar invasion in his hometown and published several influential works, including 'Icones insectorum' and a simplified guide on medicinal plants. His meticulous research in mycology led to the publication of a landmark work featuring colored illustrations of fungi, some of which bear his name.
