- Eugen Ferdinand von Homeyer (11 November 1809 in Nerdin - 31 May 1889 in Stolp) was a German ornithologist. He made early studies of the birds of Pomerania, making collections, and was a staunch anti-Darwinian. Eugen Ferdinand von Homeyer was born in a family belonging to the Prussian nobility. He at first dedicated himself to agriculture on the family farm, with poor health forcing him to drop out of school in Rostock. While on his farm, he began to make scientific observations and establish a collection. In 1840 he married Philippine Ladewig and acquired in 1852 the property Warbelow where he built a landscape park. He sold this after the death of its wife in 1873 and then lived in Stolp, where he dedicated himself to the natural sciences and ornithology. He corresponded with many European ornithologists, and through further collecting and purchase built up an important collection of European bird species. He undertook several expeditions with Alfred Brehm to the Lower Danube. This was made possible through his acquaintance with the Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria. Homeyer was against the ideas of Charles Darwin and was a firm follower of Georges Cuvier's idea that species were created periodically and some destroyed in catastrophes. From 1883 he began to violently dispute the ideas of others and earned disrepute for his frequent polemics. Homeyer was a founding member of the German Ornithological Society and from 1876 to 1883 their president. On his death his collection of 20,000 bird specimens was given to the Braunschweig Natural History Museum. Eugen von Homeyer wrote over 150 articles on birds and was the first describer of the semi-collared flycatcher and the Cyprus wheatear. His cousin Alexander von Homeyer was also an ornithologist.
