description Klaus Standfuss passed away in April 2024 at the age of 87. In his professional life, Professor Standfuss worked as a physician and university lecturer in Cologne and Dortmund. Even as an active doctor and especially as a pensioner with diverse scientific interests, he was involved for decades in the ecological reorganisation of his city garden in Dortmund and studied the insect fauna developing there. The transformation of a green wasteland into a botanically rich habitat for insects is regarded in Germany as a prime example of the creation of species-rich natural gardens in inner cities. Klaus Standfuss also became known for his contributions to the insect fauna of Germany and Greece, which he published from 1996 to 2021 together with his wife Lisa Standfuss and other specialists in various insect families. His list of entomological publications includes 42 articles, 31 of which deal with Hymenoptera, 10 with Diptera and one with bibliographical problems. Two species of Hymenoptera were named after the couple Klaus and Lisa Standfuss.
