Gustav Paganetti-Hummler was a bookseller mainly of natural history works and natural history specimen dealer. He had a large insect collection mainly of specimens from South Europe.

His collection is in the Vienna Natural History Museum (parts in the German Entomological Institute) It is important since it contains insects from South of Vienna wetland habitats near Bad Vöslau which no longer exist.
