Gordon Floyd Ferris served as professor of biology at Stanford University from 1912 to 1958 and earned a reputation for his teaching. Gordon founded and edited the journal Microentomology, preferring to work on insects that could only be examined on microscopic slides. Gordon was a specialist on the systematics of the Coccoidea.

He was against searches of personal belongings for plant quarantine measures and preferred instead that eradication measures be taken by the government.
