Christian Friedrich Carl Kleemann was a German artist, entomologist, and publisher.
He is known for his work on the continuation of the voluminous work on entomology by August Johann Rösel (1740-1761). Due to ill health, Rösel was unable to complete his series, so his work was continued by his son-in-law Christian Friedrich Karl Kleemann with the help of his daughter Katharina Barbara Kleemann. The second edition as well as the 6th part of this work did not appear until after Kleemann's death under the direction of Christian Schwarz. Most of the descriptions are devoted to butterflies, but other invertebrates, such as crabs, spiders, mollusks, and polyps, are depicted in addition to insects.
