    The document discusses important figures from different periods in the history of zoology. It mentions that in the Antiquity period, Theophrastus produced early works on botany, zoology, and mineralogy that helped establish those fields. In the Medieval period, Al-Jahiz introduced concepts like food chains and proposed early ideas of evolution. Conrad Gesner is noted from the Modern period for writing a seminal multi-volume work on animals that marked the beginning of modern zoology. The document also lists two notable Filipino zoologists: Carmen Velasquez known for her work on tropical fish and parasitology, and Dioscoro S. Rabor known for his studies of birds

    Zoologists
    Antiquity period
    Theophrastus -wrote valuable books describing plant and animal life. His works
    are regarded as the first to put botany and zoology on a systematic footing. He also
    produced one of the very first works on mineralogy, with descriptions of ores and
    minerals known to the world at that time.

    Medieval period

    Al jahiz - introduced the concept of food chains and also proposed a scheme of
    animal evolution that entailed natural selection, environmental determinism and
    possibly the inheritance of acquired characteristics

    Modern period

    Conrad Gesner he wrote a five volume book named historiae animalium. The
    book was considered to be the beginning of modern zoology.

    Filipino Zoologists

    Carmen Velasquez was known for her studies on tropical fish and parasitology.

    Dioscoro S. Rabor- was best known for his works on birds and mammals.
