Jules Antoine Adolphe Henri Putzeys (1 May 1809 – 2 January 1882) was a Belgian magistrate and an entomologist who took a special interest in the beetles belonging to the family Carabidae.
Putzeys was born in Liège and obtained a doctoral degree at the age of 20. He worked at the court of appeal in Liège and later as a substitute for the public prosecutor in Arlon. He moved to the Ministry of Justice in Brussels in 1840 and became a Secretary General in 1858. He was a member of the Commission Centrale de Statistique and was government commissioner for general and international statistics from 1879. He retired in 1880.
In 1851, he was appointed a knight in the Order of Leopold and in 1871 a commander.
Putzeys was also a respected amateur entomologist specializing in the study of beetles belonging to the family Carabidae. He was a close associate of Baron Maximilien de Chaudoir (1816-1881). He bequeathed his collection to the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences in Brussels. A variety of Begonia rex is named after him.[1] He was president of the Entomological Society of Belgium from 1874 to 1876 and published two major works, Prémices entomolgiques and Monographie de Clivina et des genres voisins.[2]
