bibliography: An outstanding researcher of the fish fauna of Ukraine Anatoliy Shcherbukha (1935–2020) Geo&Bio, 19: 148–156. (In Ukrainian) authors (with orcid and affiliation): Igor Zagorodniuk National Museum of Natural History, NAS Ukraine (Kyiv, Ukraine) doi: http://doi.org/10.15407/gb1914 pdf: pdf summary: A brief overview of the biography and scientific achievements of Anatoliy Shcherbukha — a prominent Ukrainian zoologist, museologist, collector, fish expert, developer of the Ukrainian fish nomenclature, and promoter of science. Biographical information reconstructed from a personal file found in the archives of the National Museum of Natural History NAS of Ukraine (NMNH), as well as some scientific works of the researcher are presented. An overview of his works, both articles and monographs, including reference books, scientific monographs, popular science publications, catalogues, textbooks, and identification keys is given. The entire creative path of the researcher was connected with the academic Zoological Museum, which was alternately part of the Institute of Zoology and the Central Museum of Natural History, NAS of Ukraine. The researcher went from a scientist who studied the fish fauna of a small river Psel to a prominent expert of the fish fauna of all types of water bodies of Ukraine, both natural and artificial, fresh and marine waters, aboriginal and alien components of fauna, rare and industrial fish species. The researcher's achievements in the development and approval of the Ukrainian nomenclature of fishes are also significant, including the definition of the central role of genus names, from which the names of both species and families and other taxa are formed. The zoological collection of the NMNH contains more than 2,000 fish specimens of 59 species collected by A. Shcherbukha. The researcher paid much attention to the promotion of scientific knowledge and authored two popular publications on fishes, each of which was republished. The five most cited works of the researcher are the monograph "Percomorpha" in the series "Fauna of Ukraine" (1982), the catalogue of NMNH collections "Lampreys and Fishes" (2003), the popular science book "Fishes of Our Waters" (1987), the scientific article “Fish fauna of Ukraine in retrospective and modern problems of its diversity conservation” (2004), and the reference book “The Ukrainian Nomenclature of Fishes of Ukraine” (2003). The last work of the researcher was "Key to Fishes of Continental Waters and Streamsof Ukraine" written in collaboration with colleagues from other institutions (2020).
