CARAZZI, DAVIDE. — Zoologist, embryologist, b. at Sambonifacio (Verona) on 27 Jan. 1858, d. at Florence on 18 Jan. 1923.
His critical stance towards evolution is of particular interest, especially in his inaugural lectures *Teoria e critiche della moderna biologia* (Padua 1906) and *Il dogma dell’evoluzione* (Florence 1919). The same attitude inspired the *Rassegna di Scienze biologiche*, which he edited from 1918 to 1922.
