Everardo Grossi is a clinical
pathologist who works in his free time on Dynastinae. He is
very interested in the tribe Agaocephalini and is currently
describing several species in the genera Agaocephala
and Brachysiderus.
He has an exaustive collection of Neotropical dynastines, which
is an important source for those working on this group of scarabs.
Everardo lives in a small finca
in Nova Friburgo, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil, surounded
by Atlantic Rainforest remnants. His published works include
the description of Dynastes hercules paschoali (after
his son Paschoal, who works on lucanids) and the rediscovery
of Agaocephala (now Aegopsis) bolbocerida in central Brazil.
