AGUDELO ZAMORA, Henry Darío. José Celestino Mutis and the gestation of ichthyology in the Viceroyalty of New Granada. Caldasia [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.3, pp.493-501. Epub 06-Jun-2024. ISSN 0366-5232. https://doi.org/10.15446/caldasia.v44n3.91655.
José Celestino Mutis, mostly known for his contributions in the botanical field, however; made significant, if little known, scientific additions in fields from mathematics to zoology. In this paper, I present to the public, for the first time, Mutis' work on ichthyology in the Viceroyalty of New Granada, the colonial Spanish denomination for the northern part of South America that includes the present-day countries of Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador, work that, as Linnaeus himself stated, will immortalize Mutis for future generations.
