Count Hans Hermann Carl Ludwig von Berlepsch (29 July 1850 – 27 February 1915) was a German ornithologist who took an interest in the birds of South America. He also had a cousin named Baron Sittich Hans von Berlepsch (1857-1933) with whom he was often confused. This cousin had travelled to South America and was involved in bird conservation and he once sent back a French medal honoring the bird-collecting ornithologist for discovering a new hummingbird. Von Berlepsch was in touch with most European ornithologists and collectors of his time, often hosting them at his home. Read more on Wikipedia
