摘要

摘要英国出生的唐纳德·乔治·布罗德利成年后的大部分时间都在津巴布韦的两家博物馆担任爬虫学家。他的许多分类学评论和其他出版物使他成为世界上最受尊敬的非洲爬行动物和两栖动物专家之一。唐于2016年3月10日在布拉瓦约的家中去世。这篇讣告总结、强调和表彰了他作为爬虫学家的许多成就，并指出了科学界授予他的许多荣誉。他多次前往中南部和东部非洲进行收藏探险，使津巴布韦自然历史博物馆（布拉瓦约）拥有非洲第二大爬行动物和两栖动物收藏（超过52000个标本）。其中包括他参与非洲爬虫学协会的简史，他是该协会的创始成员。作者提到了自20世纪70年代以来他们与他的交往和合作的一些个人回忆。

End of an era for African Herpetology—An obituary for a remarkable man: Donald George Broadley (29 May 1932 – 10 March 2016)

ABSTRACT English-born Donald George Broadley spent most of his adult life working as a herpetologist at two museums in Zimbabwe. His many taxonomic reviews and other publications made him one of the most respected experts on African reptiles and amphibians worldwide. Don passed away at home in Bulawayo on 10 March 2016. This obituary summarises, emphasises and honours his many achievements as a herpetologist, and notes the many honours bestowed on him by the scientific community. His numerous collecting expeditions to south-central and eastern Africa resulted in the Natural History Museum of Zimbabwe (Bulawayo) having the second largest collection (more than 52 000 specimens) of reptiles and amphibians in Africa. Included is a brief history of his involvement with the Herpetological Association of Africa, of which he was a founder member. The authors mention a few personal recollections of their associations and collaborations with him since the 1970s.
