Edward Donovan
Edward Donovan, born in 1768, was an Anglo-Irish writer, natural history illustrator and amateur zoologist. He did not travel, but collected, described and illustrated many species based on the collections of other naturalists. His many books were successful and remain as a reference to biology. He died penniless in 1837, leaving a large family destitute.
