Pioneers of plankton research: Eugène Canu (1864–1952)

Résumé

Eugène Canu made many contributions to copepod research in the late 19th century. Between 1886 and 1901 he published dozens of papers and a volume on copepods of the eastern English Channel. Interestingly, he did not pursue a career in academia. He went on from copepod research to become an aquaculture and fisheries scientist, then a high school administrator, then a ship owner and an official in fisheries organizations. Finally, Canu had a long career in politics. Eugène Canu, in one of his last roles as the Mayor of the city in Boulogne-sur-Mer is shown in Fig. 1. Here we tell the story of Canu, a man whose life shows very clearly that plankton research can lead to many different destinations.
