Charles Alfred Matley (1866–1947) was a British paleontologist and geologist in India, the British West Indies and Wales.
Matley was educated at Birmingham University, and earned a doctorate in geology (D.Sc.) from the University of London in July 1902.[1]
In the 1930s, Matley was appointed Government Geologist for Jamaica and under his tenure a ground water assessment for the island was prepared. In addition, while on the island he collected one of the most extensive collection of Jamaican fossils.[2]
Matley was awarded the Murchison Medal in 1929 by the Geological Society of London.[3] The standard author abbreviation Matley is used to indicate this individual as the author when citing a formal faunal record.
He married Sarah A. Loach in Birmingham in 1891.
