Edward Bartlett

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Edward Bartlett (1836 - 1908) was an English ornithologist. He was the son of Abraham Dee Bartlett.

Bartlett accompanied Henry Baker Tristram to Palestine in 1863-64, and collected in the Amazon basin and Peru in 1865-69. He was curator at the Maidstone Museum from 1875 to 1890.

Species named after Bartlett include Bartlett's Tinamou (Crypturellus bartletti) of Peru - the name being assigned in 1873 by fellow British ornithologists Philip Lutley Sclater and Osbert Salvin.
