The Key to Scientific Names

Nikolai P. Sokol’nikov (fl. 1914) Russian Gov. of Anadyrland, collector, naturalist, archaeologist (syn. Perisoreus infaustus yakutensis).

It might be Николай Павлович Сокольников (1860–1923) = Nikolai Pawlowitsch Sokolnikow (1860-1923). If correct is out of my knowledge.
