Chef at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo
Stanley Wells Kemp was an English marine biologist. In 1910 he joined the Zoological and Anthropological section of the Indian Museum, and when the organisation was converted in 1916 to the Zoological Survey of India, he became Superintendent and took up the study of crustaceans to continue work started by James Wood-Mason and Alfred William Alcock. He spent fourteen years in India during which he published seventeen papers on the decapods of the Indian Museum. He undertook expeditions to Baluchistan, Andaman Islands, the Abor Hills, Garo Hills and Rameshwaram. In 1910 he became a Fellow of Calcutta University and a Fellow of the Asiatic Society. In 1924 he returned to Ireland to become the first director of research in the Discovery investigations. He was Director of the Marine Biological Association from 1936 to 1945. Among the discoveries he made were the first onychophoran from the Indian region which he named as Typhloperipatus williamsoni
