In 1926 he founded the Museum of South Serbia (later - Macedonian Museum of Natural History) in Skopje and in 1928, the Zoological Garden of Skopje.

Several species are named after him, for example Delamarella karamani Petkovski, 1957 (Harpacticoida), Stygophalangium karamani Oudemans, 1933 (Arachnida), or Macedonethes stankoi I. Karaman, 2003 (Isopoda).

Other taxa named karamani are labeled after his son Gordan S. Karaman, also a carcinologist.

gollark: It does - except skynet2 because weirdness - work. I just don't know what's going on with whatever you complained about; perhaps events being eaten?
gollark: Anyway, I would investigate the skynet desyncs problem, except I have no idea where to start or what could be doing it.
gollark: ncurses
gollark: What's the use of minificatinizing that?
gollark: Since it has to connect to my external server, and the event system is really weird in CC, it's kind of hard to get real-time communications working well with it.
