Richard Thomas Lowe
Richard Thomas Lowe (1802–1874) was an English botanist, ichthyologist, malacologist, and clergyman. In 1825 he graduated from Christ's College, Cambridge, and in the same year he took holy orders. In 1832 he became a clergyman in the Madeira Islands, where he was also a part-time naturalist, extensively studying the local flora and fauna. He wrote a book on the Madeiran flora. He died in 1874 when the ship he was on was wrecked off the Isles of Scilly. Taxa Lowe named and described numerous molluscan taxa, including: * '' Caseolus'', a land snail genus and eight species within it * '' Lemniscia'', a land snail A land snail is any of the numerous species of snail that live on land, as opposed to the sea snails and freshwater snails.

Cutlassfish
The cutlassfishes are about 45 species of predatory ray-finned fish in the family Trichiuridae of the order Scombriformes found in seas throughout the world. Fish of this family are long, slender, and generally steely blue or silver in colour, giving rise to their name. They have reduced or absent pelvic fin, pelvic and caudal fins, giving them an eel-like appearance, and large fang-like teeth. Some of the species are known as scabbardfishes or hairtails; others are called frostfishes because they appear in late autumn and early winter, around the time of the first frosts. The earliest known remains of cutlassfish are isolated teeth assigned to ''Eutrichiurides'' from the Danian, Early Paleocene of Morocco, the United States, and Angola, although their affinities are subject to question. The earliest known body fossil of a cutlassfish is a specimen tentatively assigned to ''Anenchelum'' from the Ypresian, Early Eocene of Italy. Classification This list of species follows FishB ...

John Roxborough Norman (1898, Wandsworth, London – 26 May 1944, Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire) was an English ichthyologist. He started as a clerk in a bank. His lifetime affliction with rheumatic fever began during his military service during the First World War. He entered the British Museum in 1921 where he worked for Charles Tate Regan (1878–1943). From 1939 to 1944, he was in charge of the Natural History Museum at Tring as the Curator of Zoology. Norman was the author of, among others, ''A History of Fishes'' (1931) and ''A Draft Synopsis of the Orders, Families and Genera of Recent Fishes'' (1957). He was considered closer to Albert Günther (1830–1914) than to Regan.
