Théobald Nicolas (1903-1981)

BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE
Much the same as Statz making a name for himself by specializing in the fossil fauna of Rott, Théobald specialized in the Oligocene fauna of various deposits in central and south-central France, especially the Massif Central. Théobald conducted paleontological work on a number of different groups of animals in addition to insects and may be better known for his work with fishes. The type material of fossil Diptera of Théobald is deposited in the University of Nancy.
