Lőrenthey studied at the University of Budapest from 1885 to 1889 , where he was a student of Maximilian Hantken . After a study trip to Italy, Switzerland, France and London and his doctorate in 1890, he was assistant to Antal Koch (Anton Koch, 1843–1927) at the University of Cluj-Napoca (Klausenburg). He then returned to Budapest, where he completed his habilitation in paleontology of invertebrates in 1896. In 1897/98 he was with Karl Alfred von Zittel in Munich. In 1899 he became a lecturer at the University of Budapest, in 1807 an associate professor and in 1914 a full professor.

He was particularly concerned with the Decapods , the Pannonian Basin and the geology of the Budapest area. His work on fossil decapods in Hungary, which was unfinished when he died, was edited by Karl Beurlen at the suggestion of Edwin Hennig and Franz Nopcsa .

In 1905 he became a member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and in 1912 a member of the Paleontological Society .
