Eiler Theodor Lehn Schiøler

Eiler Theodor Lehn Schiøler (born October 30, 1874 in Frederiksberg ; † August 13, 1929 there ) was a Danish banker and ornithologist .

Lehn Schiøler was born in 1874 to Lauritz Eiler Theodor Schiøler (1835-1908) and Augusta Thalia Petrea Lehn (1836-1901). He got very rich as a banker, but in his spare time he was an avid student of ornithology. He collected over 25,000 West Palearctic birds, as well as bones and eggs, and in 1925 went on a scientific expedition to the west coast of Greenland . He built a large museum for his collections with an ornithological library. He married Ellen Dorthea Plum .

Lehn Schiøler is considered to be the first to describe a subspecies of the black-backed gull , the south-west Scandinavian black-backed gull ( Larus fuscus intermedius ), in volume 16 of the Dansk Ornithologisk Forenings tidsskrift (1922).
