are often closely related to their hosts.
Early in his career Carlo Emery pursued a course in general medicine, and in 1872 narrowed his interests to ophthalmology. In 1878 he was appointed Professor of Zoology at the
Coleoptera. Prior to 1869, his earliest works were a textbook of general zoology and papers on fishes and molluscs. From 1869 to 1925 he devoted himself almost entirely to the study of ants.[1]
Emery published extensively between 1869 and 1926 describing 130
Wytsman's Genera Insectorum series.[citation needed

Emery's collections of Hymenoptera are in the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale Giacomo Doria in Genoa. His Coleoptera are in Rome's Museo Civico di Zoologia. [2] He died at Bologna in 1925.
