Hans Kauri (until 1935, Hans Mühlberg;[2] May 30, 1906 – January 30, 1999)[2][3] was an Estonian entomologist, zoologist, and politician. He also worked with other groups of fauna, especially arachnids. He had a strong impact on zoological studies at the University of Bergen.

One biographer characterized Kauri as follows: "in all areas he created a professional stimulating environment for both young and older researchers. However, he was a very determined gentleman, who asserted his ideas and opinions with great strength."[4]
