Robert Ridgway
Robert Ridgway (n. , Mount Carmel(d), Illinois, SUA – d. , Olney(d), Illinois, SUA) a fost un ornitolog american specializat în sistematică. El a fost numit în anul 1880 de către Spencer Fullerton Baird, secretar al Instituției Smithsoniene, pentru a fi primul curator de păsări cu normă întreagă la Muzeul Național al Statelor Unite ale Americii, titlu deținut până la moartea sa. În 1883, el a ajutat la fondarea Uniunii Ornitologice Americane, unde el a servit ca responsabil și editor al revistei. Ridgway a fost un remarcabil taxonomist descriptiv, culminând munca sa de o viață cu Păsările din America de Nord și de Mijloc (opt volume, 1901-1919). În timpul vieții sale, el a fost de neegalat în numărul de specii de păsări din America de Nord pe care el le-a descris pentru știință. Ca illustrator tehnic, Ridgway a utilizat propriile sale picturi și desene schiță pentru a complementa scrierile sale. De asemenea, el a publicat două cărți care au sistematizat numele de culori pentru a descrie păsări, O Nomenclatură a Culorilor pentru Naturaliști (1886) și Standardele Culorilor și Nomenclatura Culorilor (1912). Ornitologii din toată lumea continuă să citeze studii de culoare și cărțile lui Ridgway.
