Philipp Ludwig Statius Müller (25 April 1725 – 5 January 1776) was a German zoologist.
Statius Müller was born in Esens, and was a professor of natural science at Erlangen.
Between 1773 and 1776, he published a German translation of Linnaeus's Natursystem.
The supplement in 1776 contained the first scientific classification for a number of species, including the dugong, guanaco, potto, tricolored heron, umbrella cockatoo, red-vented cockatoo, and the enigmatic hoatzin.
