David Vilhelm Ljungdahl, born December 5, 1870 in Motala, Östergötland, died September 6, 1940 in Matthew , Stockholm City, Uppland.
David was a Swedish Swedish entomologist, craftsman, teacher and illustrator.

He was the son of the tailor master Petter Vilhem Ljungdahl and Lovisa Bergqvist, from 1896 married to Lovisa Augusta Borgh.

Ljungdahl studied at the Technical School 1886-1892 and at the Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm 1894-1895. He then participated in Axel Tallberg's etching course. He received an artist's fee from the Academy of Art in 1908-1909. He was hired in 1912 as a teacher at the Technical School and later at the Technical University (KTH) in Stockholm. He exhibited together with the Swedish Artists' Association, the Art Association for Southern Sweden, Swedish Art in Helsingborg, Art and the Industrial Exhibition in Norrköping in 1906 and the Industrial Craft and Art Exhibition in Lund in 1907.

He was active as a model builder for the Nordic Museum and the State Historical Museum, he has also designed exlibris and illustrated books. Among other things, he made the cover for Verner von Heidenstam's Hans Alienus, Selma Lagerlöfs Slåtterkarlarna in Ekolsund and Jules Vernes Captain Grant's children. Together with the entomologists Frithiof Nordström, Einar Wahlgren and Albert Tullgren, was added the monumental work, Swedish Butterflies, 1935-1941, where Ljungdahl provided the illustrations. In addition to his own creation and his work as a teacher, he participated as a press draftsman in the Vecko Journalen.
