Dr. Candèze was born in Liège, Belgium, on 27 February 1827. He studied medicine at Liège and Paris and continued his profession at Glain, near Liège. In Liège, he was a pupil of Lacordaire, which probably influenced his career as an entomologist. His first publication in 1853 was a catalog of Coleoptera larvae. Although best known for his work with Elateridae, he described a number of scarabs. He was a founding member of the Belgian Entomological Society.
