The article presents a text by Arthur Pierre Stępiński (1829–1900) published on the occasion of the death of Władysław Taczanowski, an eminent zoologist and director of the Warsaw Zoological Cabinet. This text was published in Paris in Bulletin Polonais Littéraire, Scientifique et Artis- tique. It reveals a profound knowledge of the works of Władysław Taczanowski as well as a good under- standing of the situation of Polish science in Warsaw during the Russian occupation. The author rightly emphasises the importance of the patronage of Alek- sander and Konstanty Branicki, that of the networks of scientific collaborators of the Warsaw Cabinet, and the success of his Ornithologie du Pérou. We believe that recalling the existence and content of this text is all the more important as there is at present no biography of Władysław Taczanowski. It is also an opportunity to recall the activities of the Polish scientific institutions in exile.

[The life and scientific work of W. Taczanowski is presented in an obituary published by Bulletin Polonais Littéraire, Scientifique et Artistique [Polish Literary, Scientific and Artistic Bulletin], a Polish journal in exile in Paris. His work is analysed in the context of the history of the natural sciences in Poland. The article also presents the merits of Taczanowski for enriching the collections of the Warsaw Zoological Office and his research on the fauna of North Africa, Asia and South America. This scientist not only succeeded in publishing monographs on the birds of Peru and Eastern Siberia, but also in bringing together, for the zoological cabinet of Warsaw, one of the most important naturalistic collections of the 19th century.]
