Kamakichi Kishinouye (岸上 鎌吉, Kishinoue Kamakichi, 29 November 1867 – 22 November 1929) was a Japanese fisheries biologist and cnidariologist and a professor of the Imperial University of Tokyo (Faculty of Agriculture) between 1908 and 1928.
Kishinouye died in Chengdu of a sudden illness while on a collecting expedition to China.
[1] Kishinouye recommended Kumataro Ito to Hugh M. Smith as an artist on board the U.S. Bureau of Fisheries Steamer U.S.S.
Kishinouyea has been also used by Yoshio Ôuchi to describe a praying mantis genus that he quickly renamed Kishinouyeum in 1938, and that could be a junior synonym for Phyllothelys.
The American ichthyologist John Otterbein Snyder honoured him in the name of the gurnard Lepidotrigla kishinouyi, although he left the e out for phonetic reasons.
