EDWARD BARTLETT


'Edward Bartlett' (1836 - 1908) was an English ornithologist. He was the son of Abraham Dee Bartlett.[1]
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, and curator of the Sarawak Museum from 1893 to 1897.
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.
