The social history of science offers a means of understanding the role played by amateur scientists in scientific activities performed in Mexico City during the final third of the 19th century. A case in point involves the German, Otto von Brackel-Welda, one of many foreigners residing in the capital who became inserted into networks of scientific inquiry in Mexico when, in 1875-1876, he proposed two ornithological projects based on the utilitarian conception of scientific knowledge of Mexican fauna.
