He is a pioneer of taxonomist and the founder of Lepidoptera and aphid sys- tematics. Hungfu Chu is the first person to erect the nomenclature of the chaetotaxy of lepidopteran larvae, and he introduced numerical taxonomy and cladistics to China. He also compiled the textbook Theoretical Fundamentals of Animal Systematics, which is the first theoretical monograph in animal systematics in China. Hongfu Chu devoted all of his time to the study of entomology, and he made magnifi- cent contributions in establishing and developing entomol- ogy and insect taxonomy in China.展开更多
