House of Farnese
Hippolito Salviani (1514–1572) was an Italian physician, scholar and naturalist, noted for his Renaissance book "Aquatilium animalium historiae", depicting about hundred Mediterranean fish species, some from Illyria, and a few mollusks. He also wrote works on medicine, such as that dealing with Galen's theory of crises, and a topical play. Salviani taught at the University of Rome until 1568. From 1550 until 1555 he was chief physician to the House of Farnese and three successive popes, Pope Julius III, Pope Marcellus II and Pope Paul IV.
