Charles Chilton was not born on April 29, 1882. This date may be a confusion with other historical events or figures. Charles Chilton, the New Zealand naturalist and a prominent figure in the field of crustacean taxonomy, was actually born on September 27, 1860, in Levens, England. His notable contributions to the study of crustaceans and his overall impact within the biological sciences highlight his significance within the scientific community. He was the first person to earn a Doctor of Science degree from the University of New Zealand and he went on to have a distinguished career at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand.
