Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox scientist
Christian Frederik Lütken (Шаблон:IPA-da; 7 October 1827, in Sorø – 6 February 1901), was a Danish zoologist and naturalist.
In 1852, he resigned his commission as a lieutenant with the Danish army, and earned his master's degree in sciences the following year.[1] Afterwards, he served as an assistant to Japetus Steenstrup (1813–1897) at the University of Copenhagen Zoological Museum, at the time an independent institution, now part of the Natural History Museum of Denmark. Following Steenstrup's retirement in 1885, he became a professor of zoology and director of the zoological museum. As he grew older, he suffered from physical infirmities and during the last year of his life, he was stricken by paralysis.[2] In 1899, Hector Frederik Estrup Jungersen (1854–1917) was chosen as Lütken's successor at Copenhagen.[3]
Lütken specialized in marine zoology, being highly regarded for his research of echinoderms. He described a number of marine organisms, and has numerous species named after him, such as Paulicea luetkeni, Platystoma luetkeni, Ophiactis luetkeni and Oneirodes luetkeni.[4][5][6]
With Johannes Theodor Reinhardt (1816–1882), he published a book on Brazilian amphibians and reptiles titled Bidrag til Kundskab om Brasiliens Padder og Krybdyr.[7] With Reinhardt, he described several herpetological species,[8] including the Little-scaled least gecko, the Rio Grande escuerzo and Saint Vincent's bush anole.
