Symphyta research from 1801 till 1920 in the Royal Hungary The first zoological textbook of the 19th century was the "Természeti história. A Linnaeus systemája szerint. 1. tsomó. Az állatok országa" (nice archaic Hungarian, in modern English: Natural History according to Linnaeus's system) is written by János Földi (1755 Nagyszalonta - 1801 Hajdúhadház). In this book (FÖLDI 1801), he mentioned 3 sawfly species, namely Tenthredo capreae (actually Nematus ribesi Scop.), Tenthredo rosae (actually Arge ochropus Gmel.) and Sirex gigas. He described the sawflies and studied the host plants and the damage to the host plants as well; his work is one of the oldest plant-protection evaluations of the sawflies in the Carpathian Basin after Grossinger. There were hardly any Hungarian sawfly records in the first five decades of the 19 th century. Even though this period was characterised by intensive cultural and scientific progress in Royal Hungary (Hungarian reform era, foundation of the Hungarian National Museum in 1802 and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1825 etc.), this group was not studied at all except for the species-descriptions by Johann Christoph Friedrich Klug (1775 Berlin - 1856 Berlin, curator of the Natural History Museum in Berlin). Between 1816 and 1818, he described 9 Fig. 4: Ottó Herman
