William Beutenmüller was an American entomologist specializing in Lepidoptera, particularly moths, but an active collector and taxonomist of all orders, including flies, beetles, Orthoptera and gallflies. Beutenmüller came to the American Museum of Natural History in 1888, was curator of the Dept. of Entomology from 1893 to 1908, and associate curator of Lepidoptera, Dept. of Invertebrate Zoology, from 1909 to 1911. His expeditions to the Black Hills of North Carolina, 1895-1912, resulted in the collection of over 31,000 specimens, including many new and rare species. Another of Beutenmüller's projects was the identification of insects found within fifty miles of New York City.
