In 1886, he joined veterinary faculty at the University of Parma until 1893, when he moved to the Veterinary school of the University of Pisa, remaining there until his death in 1919. In Cittanova, he is honored by a street named Via Vincenzo Colucci. Although he usually dealt with normal and pathological histology of domestic animals, he published two papers on regeneration in salamanders. The first, in 1886, described the cellular events during regeneration of extirpated limbs and tails. The second, in 1891, demonstrated that the regenerating lens of the eye arises from the iris; three years later in Germany, Gustav Wolff (1894), without mentioning his Italian colleague, published exactly the same result; Emery (1896)suggested that Wolff learned of Colucci\u2019s work from an abstract on page 174 of Zoologischer Jahresbericht f\u00FCr 1891 (1893), repeated the experiment, and passed it off as his own original discovery a year later. Even so, such lens regeneration has long been called Wolffian and not Coluccian. Significantly, Colucci\u2019s regeneration studies were among the first to examine the phenomenon extensively at the cellular level of organization in any animal."@en . . . . . .
