Robert Kidston
Robert Kidston, FRS (29 June 1852 - 13 July 1924) was a Scottish palaeobotanist. He studied botany at the University of Edinburgh and later studied the Rhynie chert〔Kidston, R. & Lang, W.H. 1917. On Old Red Sandstone Plants showing Structure from the Rhynie Chert Bed, Aberdeenshire. Part I. Rhynia Gwynne-Vaughani, KIDSTON and Lang. Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, 51 (24), 761–784.〕 and worked for the British Geological Survey. Kidston was "arguably the best and most influential palaeobotanist of his day. In over 180 scientific papers he laid the foundations for a modern understanding of the taxonomy and palaeobiology of Devonian and Carboniferous plants."〔( Christine A. Thomson and Ian P. Wilkinson, "Robert Kidston (1852–1924): biography of a Scottish palaeobotanist", Lyell Collection, ''Scottish Journal of Geology.'' v. 45:161-168 (November 2009). doi:10.1144/0036-9276/01-360 )〕
In the 1880s Kidston was asked to catalogue the Palaeozoic plant collection of the British Museum (Natural History). This work began in February 1883, and was completed in 1886.
