Henry Tibbats Stainton

Henry Tibbats Stainton

Henry Tibbats Stainton (August 13, 1822 - December 2, 1892) was an English entomologist.

He was the author of "Manual of British Butterflies and Moths" (1857-59) and with the German entomologist Philipp Christoph Zeller, a Swiss, Heinrich Frey and another Englishman, John William Douglas of "The Natural History of the Tineina" (1855-73).

Stainton was a very wealthy man and his house in Lewisham, "Mountsfield" was one of London's more substantial residences set in its own park. Other wealthy entomologists often stayed at Mountsfield when visiting London, notably Alexander Henry Haliday and Deiterich Carl August Dohrn. The zoologist Nicholas Aylward Vigors was a close friend. Such people, sought by the growing number of scientific societies, wielded enormous influence on scientific development. Stainton was a regular visitor to both Haliday's house in Lucca and to Dohrn's in Stettin. He was a member of both the Entomological Society of London and the Stettin Entomological Society.
