Jane Stephens (9 October 1879 - 11 December 1959) was an Irish zoologist who was considered a leading authority on sponges in Ireland with specialised knowledge in other marine life who identified and named over 40 sponges new to science. From 1905 to 1920 she was employed in the Natural History Division of the National Museum of Ireland working primarily on the collections of marine invertebrates, including taking part in the Clare Island Survey. Robert Lloyd Praeger testified to her knowledge of and work with Irish sponges stating that "Most of what we know of this group, whether marine or fresh-water, in Ireland, or off the Irish coasts, is due to her work."

  • Jane Stephens, née le 9 octobre 1879 à Clontarf (Irlande) et morte le 11 décembre 1959 à Londres (Royaume-Uni), est une zoologiste irlandaise. Elle est à son époque connue comme une spécialiste renommée des éponges, dont elle a décrit une quarantaine de nouvelles espèces. De 1905 à 1920, elle est employée par le muséum d'histoire naturelle de Dublin, travaillant initialement dans le domaine des invertébrés marins. Le naturaliste Robert Lloyd Praeger, témoignant de son travail, affirme que l'essentiel des connaissances que l'on a concernant les éponges marines ou d'eaux douces en Irlande ou au large des cotes irlandaises est le fruit de ses recherches.
