Broadbent collected the type specimen of the Rufous Bristlebird in 1858 and it was named Dasyornis broadbenti in his honour. He is also commemorated in one of the common names of Batrachomoeus trispinosus, Broadbent's frogfish. While in New Guinea he contacted a fever which remained with him for the rest of his life and in 1872 he survived the shipwreck of the Maria near Hinchinbrook Island. He was said to have collected specimens on expeditions in every part of Australia as well as in New Guinea. (en)
