[The life and scientific work of W. Taczanowski is presented in an obituary published by Bulletin Polonais Littéraire, Scientifique et Artistique [Polish Literary, Scientific and Artistic Bulletin], a Polish journal in exile in Paris. His work is analysed in the context of the history of the natural sciences in Poland. The article also presents the merits of Taczanowski for enriching the collections of the Warsaw Zoological Office and his research on the fauna of North Africa, Asia and South America. This scientist not only succeeded in publishing monographs on the birds of Peru and Eastern Siberia, but also in bringing together, for the zoological cabinet of Warsaw, one of the most important naturalistic collections of the 19th century.]
