David Attenborough's long trajectory working on nature documentaries and supporting conservation initiatives has made him an inspiration and a popular choice among naturalists to honour him with eponyms when naming newly described organisms. Attenborough himself has said that this is the "biggest of compliments that you could ask from any scientific community." As of 2022, there are more than 50 taxa (genera and species) of organisms that have been named after David Attenborough. Additionally, there is at least one species named after one of his documentary series. This list presents the scientific names as originally given (their basionyms). By default, they are shown in the chronological order in which they were published. They can also be ordered alphabetically by genus or by type of organism. See also
