Jinshichi Shibuya

Jinshichi Shibuya (渋谷 甚七, Shibuya Jinshichi) was a Japanese entomologist who specialized in the Lepidoptera, most notably cataloguing the Endotrichini[1] and Galleriinae[2] taxa of moths living in the country. Shibuya also described several species for the first time, including Homoeosoma matsumurella, Etielloides curvella, and Ceroprepes nigrolineatella.[3][4]
