Carl Eduard Adolph Gerstaecker (30 August 1828, in Berlin – 20 June 1895, in Greifswald) was a German zoologist and entomologist.
He studied medicine and natural sciences in Berlin, receiving his PhD in 1855 as a student of Johann Christoph Friedrich Klug. In 1856 he obtained his habilitation for zoology, and soon afterwards, became a curator at the Zoological Museum of Humboldt University. In 1864 he began work as a lecturer at the Landwirtschaftlichen Lehranstalt (Agricultural Educational Facility) in Berlin. In 1874 he became an associate professor for zoology at the University of Berlin, and in 1876, a professor of zoology at the University of Greifswald.[1]
