Betty Kellett Nadeau (1906-?) was an American paleontologist who was considered "an authority on Palaeozoic ostracoda".[1] Numerous marine species and a genus bear her name.

Early life

Elizabeth R. Kellett was born in 1906 in Kansas to Elsie Jane and E. V. Kellett.[2][3] For part of her childhood, she lived in Miami, Oklahoma.[3]

Kellett moved to Lawrence, Kansas[4] and attended the University of Kansas, where she studied with state geologist Raymond Cecil Moore and graduated in 1927. She pursued further studies in Massachusetts, working in the laboratory of paleontologist Joseph Augustine Cushman.[5]

Career

She worked for the Amerada Petroleum Corporation of Tulsa, Oklahoma beginning in 1929,[6] before moving to Lake Charles, Louisiana, where she worked for Stone & Webster. In 1934, in Lake Charles, she married Edward Hollis Nadeau.[3] Beginning in 1947, Nadeau taught at Washington University in St. Louis.[7]

By 1958, she had left St. Louis to follow her husband E. H. Nadeau to Naples, Italy and to Venezuela, where he was stationed.[8]

Work

Some of the types of ostracodes she worked with were primary types, as well as topotypes. These were collected from above and below the surface of the ground. Nadeau observed that there existed a multiplicity of variations not only between species of ostracodes, but among each species as well. This research was based off the Kansas ostracodes. She discovered the variations of the Kansas ostracodes were either causes by variations between individuals. She also found sex and age of ostracodes to be contributors to variation. She spent eight years studying carboniferous ostracodes, and studying the different types of variations of this species.[9]

Legacy

The species Paraparchites kellettae,[10]

Hollinella kellettae,[11]Remaneica kellettae,[12]Pseudobythocypris kellettae,[13]

and Polytylites kellettae[14]

and the genus Bekena[15][16] are named for her.
