James Cosmo Melvill (Londres, 1 de julho de 1845 – 4 de novembro de 1929) foi um botânico e zoólogo britânico.[1]

Seu pai foi o Sir James Cosmo Melvill (1792-1861), subsecretário de Estado para a Índia.[1] Começou a partir dos oito anos a colecionar conchas, e reuniu uma imensa coleção graças à compra de numerosas coleções postas a venda em Londres. Melvill adquiriu 56 coleções de John Dennison (1??? - 1864) (1865), Thomas Norris (17?? - 1852) (1873, 1874) e Thomas Lombe Taylor (1802-1874) (1880).

A coleção de Melvill reuniu mais de 22.500 espécies, a metade das espécies conhecidas na sua época e uma das duas mais importantes coleções privadas. A coleção particular de Melvill foi adquirida por John Read le Brockton Tomlin (1864-1954). Esta coleção, misturada com a rica coleção de Tomlin, está atualmente conservada no Museu Nacional do País de Gales.
