Heinrich Friedrich August Karl Ludwig Friese (4 May 1860, Schwerin – 8 September 1948, Schwerin) was a German biologist and entomologist, a specialist of bees (melittologist).
[1] Between 1883 and 1939, he described 1,989 new species and 564 new varieties or subspecies of insects, 99% of which were bees.
[1] He has published 270 scientific articles, including a 6-volume report on European bees (1895-1901).
[1] The bee genus Eufriesea is named after him, along with stingless bee (Meliponini) genus Frieseomelitta,[1] as well as a number of separate species such as Megachile friesei[2] and Sphecodes friesei.
