Range, 1908 in Lüderitz Bay

Paul Theodor Range (1 May 1879 in Lübeck – 29 August 1952 in Lübeck) was a German geologist and naturalist.

He studied natural sciences at the universities of Würzburg and Leipzig, receiving his doctorate in 1903. From 1906 to 1914 he worked as a government geologist in German South-West Africa, and afterwards performed scientific studies in the Sinai Peninsula.[1] From 1921 he gave lectures in geology at the University of Berlin, becoming an associate professor in 1934.[2][3] In 1936, he was named president of the Deutschen Geologischen Gesellschaft.[1]

Range is commemorated in the scientific name of the Namib sand gecko (Pachydactylus rangei), which was described as a species new to science by herpetologist Lars Gabriel Andersson in 1908.[4]
