Flaminio Baudi di Selve

Flaminio Baudi di Selve (7 July 1821, Savigliano – 26 June 1901, Genoa) was an Italian entomologist who specialised in Coleoptera but also Heteroptera.

He wrote Europae et circummediterraneae Faunae Tenebrionidum specierum, quae Comes Dejean in suo Catalogo, editio 3, consignavit, ejusdem collectione in R. Taurinensi Musaeo asservata, cum auctorum hodierne recepta denominatione collatio. Pars tertia. Dtsch. Entomol. Z. 20: 225–267 (1876), Catalogo dei coleotteri del Piemonte Torino, Tip. e. Lit. Camilla E. Bertolero (1889) and very many shorter works on beetles. He described many new species.

His insect collection, mainly Palearctic is shared between Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Genova, Turin Museum of Natural History and Museo Regionale di Scienze Naturali Regione Piemonte
