Irena Dworakowska (born 1941) is a Polish entomologist who specialized in hemipterology.[1]
Career
She was active at the Uniwersytet Warszawski, Museum and Institute of Zoology of Polish Academy of Sciences and University of British Columbia in Vancouver.[1][2][3]
Dworakowska provided major contributions into systematics and taxonomy of global fauna of Typhlocybinae subfamily of leafhoppers.[1] Publishing since the late 60s she described many genera and species new to the science.[4][5] In her earlier works she revised difficult genera of the Western Palaearctic such as Eupteryx, Eurhadina and Kybos. Later publications are focused on Oriental and Ethiopian regions.[1]
Dworakowska has authored a large number of genera[6][7][8][9][10] and is known for unusual names she coined, such as Yakuza, Dziwneono (pl: it is strange), Kropka (pl: a dot), Koperta (pl: envelope) or Niedoida (pl: niedojda - duffer).[3]
As a name authority she is cited as Dworakowska.
Legacy
Two genera have been named in tribute to her: Dworakowskaia[11] and Irenaneura.[12]
