Percy Milton Butler (19 July 1912 – 7 February 2015) was a British zoologist and palaeontologist. He proposed that dental characters are expressed in morphogenetic gradients along the dentition, which could therefore be used to study evolution. This became known as Butler's Field Theory. He was Professor of Zoology at Royal Holloway, University of London, where he was the Head of the Department of Zoology from 1956 to 1972, and where he established the first course on mammalogy in the UK.

  • Percy Milton Butler (* 19. Juli 1912; † 7. Februar 2015) war ein britischer Wirbeltier-Paläontologe und Zoologe. Er war Professor für Zoologie am Royal Holloway College der Universität London. Er studierte an der Cambridge University und an der Columbia University, wobei er gleichzeitig 1938 am American Museum of Natural History (bei William King Gregory) über die Zahnevolution von Säugern arbeitete. Butler befasste sich insbesondere mit frühen (mesozoischen) Säugern und der Entwicklung der Zähne früher Säuger. Außerdem befasste er sich mit tertiären Säugetieren aus Ostafrika, wobei er auch mit Louis Leakey die Fauna der Olduvai-Schlucht bearbeitete. Noch in den 1990er Jahren befasste er sich mit Haramiyida. 1996 erhielt er die Romer-Simpson-Medaille der Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, deren Ehrenmitglied er seit 1994 war. (de)
