Charles James Watkins (12 July 1846 – 27 May 1906) was an English entomologist known for his studies on the natural history of Gloucestershire. He was elected a Fellow of the Entomological Society of London in 1900.[1][2][3] His extensive collection of insects, noted for its completeness and rare specimens, was acquired by the Bristol Museum & Art Gallery after his death.[4]
