摘要

柯蒂斯·盖茨·劳埃德是一位自学成才但知识渊博的业余真菌学家，在1885年至1925年期间，他通过自己资助的出版物发挥了巨大的影响力。他的特质也在他在欧洲的广泛旅行和居住期间表现出来。有两个主题引起了他对特定工作者的愤怒:1)劳埃德得出结论，真菌的数量是有限的，尤其是欧洲的真菌群与北美的真菌群相比，所以他认为类群数量过高是没有根据的;2)在命名法的二项式后面加上作者的名字，这是公认的和“立法”的习惯，劳埃德认为这是个人的“广告”。虽然受害者的数量是用分数来衡量的，但我们选择并总结了劳埃德批评的四位接受者:李·奥弗霍尔特、乔治·弗朗西斯·阿特金森、乔治·爱德华·马西和爱德华·安格斯·伯特。关键词:批评;真菌学史

Curtis Gates Lloyd: American mycological narcissist

Curtis Gates Lloyd, self-taught but knowledgeable amateur mycologist, wielded inordinate power through his self-supported publications during the period 1885–1925. His idiosyncrasies were exhibited also during his extensive travel and residence in Europe. Two subjects drew his ire to specific workers: 1) Lloyd concluded that the numbers of fungi were limited, especially the mycota of Europe versus North America, so what he considered an inflated number of taxa was unwarranted; and 2) the accepted and "legislated" custom of adding the names of authors following nomenclatural binomials, which Lloyd considered personal 'advertising.' While the number of victims was measured in scores, four recipients of Lloyd's criticisms are selected and summarized: Lee Oras Overholts, George Francis Atkinson, George Edward Massee, and Edward Angus Burt. Key words: criticism, mycological history
