Francis Milburn Howlett information


Francis "Frank" Milburn Howlett (5 January 1877 – 20 August 1920[1]) was a British entomologist who served in India in the position of a Second Imperial Entomologist, a position which was later changed to the Imperial Pathological Entomologist in India. He specialized in insects (mainly Diptera - sandflies[2]) and parasitic ticks of medical and veterinary importance.[3] A major discovery by him was the attractant methyl eugenol and its effect on flies of the genus Bactrocera.
