Stephen Troyte Dunn (26 August 1868, Bristol - 18 April, 1938, Sheen, Surrey, England[1]) was a British botanist.
He described and systematized a significant number of plants around the world, his input most noticeable in the taxonomy of the flora of China.
Among the plants he first scientifically described was Bauhinia blakeana, now the national flower of Hong Kong.
While superintendent at the Department of Botany and Forestry, Hong Kong (1903–1910), Stephen Dunn would go on expeditions and make many collections in Asia, including Taiwan, Guangdong province and Fujian Province, as well as in Korea and Japan.
