Shane A. Parker

Shane A. Parker

Shane A. Parker (b. 1943, d. Adelaide 21 November 1992) was a British-born museum curator and ornithologist, who emigrated to Australia in 1967. He worked as a curator at the South Australian Museum 1976-1992.

Parker described Cox's Sandpiper as a species new to science in 1982; this wader was later revealed to be a hybrid. He was the senior author of the first two parts (all that were published) of the "Annotated Checklist of the Birds of South Australia", "Part 1: Emus to Spoonbills" (1979), and "Part 2A: Waterfowl" (1985).
