- JStor, Global plants, viewed 8-20-2015:(Pratt, Antwerp Edgar (1852-1924); English explorer and professional zoological collector who collected insects and plants in China (1887-1890), south of Ichang and also at Tatsienlu and Mount Omei. He was commissioned by another British explorer and butterfly collector, John Henry Leech (1862-1900), to go up the Yangzi River and as far as possible into Tibet, though apparently he did not progress further than Tatsienlu. A.E. Pratt's plant introductions include Rhododendron prattii Franch., named in his honour)
