Robert Fisher Tomes (4 August 1823 – 10 July 1904) was an English farmer and zoologist. ==Biography== Tomes was born in Weston-on-Avon and farmed at Welford, Gloucestershire. He was a specialist in bats, describing a number of new species. His writings included the sections on insectivora and chiroptera in the second edition of Thomas Bell's ''History of Quadrupeds''. His interest in ornithology waned, and he resigned from the British Ornithologists Union in 1866. His contributions to the two Victoria County Histories were his only significant ornithological works.〔The Historical Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Ireland, 1875-1900, Simon Holloway, T & A D Poyser, 1996〕 Tomes is buried at South Littleton, Worcestershire. His collection of mammals was sold to the Natural History Museum, and his bird collection was bequeathed to the museum in Worcester.
